When I printed my return there are 4 1040-ES vouchers with a payment schedule for me to pay the IRS but I'm getting a refund, how can this be?

I took a withdraw from my 401K this year to pay for medical expenses. I have no plans of doing that again. Are these real payment vouchers?

The Form 1040-ES are estimated tax forms for tax year 2023.  If you do not need to pay 2023 estimated taxes just ignore the forms.  They are for your use only and are not reported to the IRS unless you use them.

The 1040ES are estimates for next year. The 1040ES quarterly estimated tax payments DO NOT get sent to the IRS or state with your return. They are optional to pay. Turbo Tax is very conservative and doesn't want you to owe too much next year. They might have printed out if you got a one time large income this year. Like if you took a IRA or 401K distribution. You can ignore them.
