Check This Entry: Estimated Tax Payment Options

[aqjune]

Hi,

I am in the last step of filing my individual tax form (1040) and stuck at "Check This Entry: Estimated Tax Payment Options".

TurboTax does not continue because I have to revise this somehow, but whatever fix I make TurboTax says that it is unfixed yet.

If I click 'Fix Federal Return', this screen shows up:

There are four option boxes (Payment number 1~4) and one checkbox (Next payment due 4).

I tried all possible combinations which is 8 (4 option boxes * 2 checked/unchecked box = 😎 but it does not fix and goes back to the above first screen.

What should I do to fix this issue in this case?

I am using TurboTax Premier (the 89$ one).

If you chose to have TurboTax prepare quarterly estimated tax vouchers, go back to the Estimated Taxes section under Other Tax Situations and review/ answer the questions. 

You could also try deleting the forms 1040-ES and then completing that section again.

Hi, thanks for your answer.

Unfortunately I am still seeing the error message. Let me attach the screenshots that I saw from TurboTax while going through Estimated Taxes.

I cannot find 1040-ES from the list of forms that can be deleted, either.

Okay, I deleted these two items:

Estimated Taxes and Form W-4 Worksheet
Estimated Tax Payment Options

and avoided going through the "W-4 and Estimated Taxes" step at all. And it worked!
