The 1040-ES voucher that is due in January 2017 represents the last quarterly installment of 2016 taxes.
Whether you will owe a penalty and interest on your 2016 taxes depends on the amount of your underpayment.
Underpayment Penalty : It's important to know how it works . The tax system is "pay as you go" which means when you receive money the tax is due at that time and the responsibility is yours. Anyone can wait until they file their return to pay the tax, but if enough tax isn't paid when money is earned or received then penalties will be applied for late payment.
There are two exceptions to the penalty (if you filed with TurboTax in 2015 and transferred your information then this is automated without your intervention:(
1. If 90% of the current (2016) year tax is paid on time through withholding and/or estimated payments
2. If 100% of the 2015 total tax was paid on time through withholding and/or estimated payments
If estimated payments were made, but they were not paid on time, a penalty could still exist.
