You can use 2018 TurboTax to calculate your Estimates for 2019. You will have the option to include any changes in income or deductions that you anticipate for 2019.
To do so, please follow these instructions:
Please comment below if you need further clarification.
There is no 1040-es. That seems to be the problem. I didn't have estimated taxes in 2018, but I do now. There was no 1040-es, consequently, when I search, there is not result, nor is there a "Jump to" button. Surely TurboTax has run into a scenario like this in the past where a customer's tax situation changes and they need to start estimating and paying quarterly taxes.

@mightydubster What version of TurboTax are you using?
@TurboTaxRachelW My response apparently got eaten. It is Home and Business 2018. Do you need anything more specific than that?
Are you using the Online Self Employed version or the Desktop Home & Business program? Estimates are in both.
You can just type W4 in the search box at the top of your return , click on Find. Then Click on Jump To and it will take you to the estimated tax payments section. Say no to changing your W-4 and the next screen will start the estimated taxes section.
Or Go to….
Federal Taxes or Personal (Deskop H&B)
Other Tax Situations
Other Tax Forms
Form W-4 and Estimated Taxes - Click the Start or Update button
You use W4 in the search box. If you use 1040ES I think it takes you where to enter Estimates you PAID.
