Is there a link that I need to visit in order to pay quarterly taxes?

And deduct things such as mileage, gas, everyday expenses?

Here are the blank Estimates and instructions…..

http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040es.pdf

 

The 1040ES quarterly estimates are due April 15,  June 15, Sept 15 and Jan 18, 2022.  Your state will also have their own estimate forms.

 

Or you can pay directly on the IRS website https://www.irs.gov/payments

Be sure to pick the right kind of payment and year.....2021 Estimate

 

 

To prepare estimates for next year you start with your current return, but be careful not to change anything.  If you can't get back into your return, Click on Add a State to let you back into your retun.

 

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)

You can pay quarterly estimated taxes directly on the IRS and State tax websites.  But 2021 Q1 was due yesterday (April 15).

 

Are you self-employed?  If you qualify, you can deduct either mileage or gas, but not both.   But "everyday expenses" (such as lunch) are not usually deductible.
