Go through the Underpayment Penalties interview in the Other Tax Situations in the federal interview.    You can also search for penalty and use the 'Jump to penalty' link.  

 

At the end of the interview, you are asked about waiver situations.   You can answer Yes due to disaster reasons.    You can answer No to all of the other questions before the waiver screen appears.
