I've just made an online quarterly estimated payment for my 1099-MISC income. Do I need to file a 1040-ES in addition to my payment, or am I done for this quarter?

I made my payment via one of the official debit card payment methods on the IRS website. The 1040-ES states, "File only if you are making a payment of estimated tax by check or money order." It appears therefore that, having paid online, I no longer need to file the 1040-ES. However, it all seemed just a bit too quick and simple of a process.

So my question is, is there anything else I should do for this quarter? Or is making quarterly estimated payments online really that simple?

Thank you!

You're done for the quarter. Just make sure you print your receipt and file it with your tax records.
