🔍 How do I amend Form 1040-Individual ES payment arrangements made on a previously e-filed tax return?
This guide explains what to do if your estimated tax was too high or too low, and how to handle changes when you are using Direct Debit.
⚠️ Before You Begin
Before you make changes, you should re-figure your estimated tax for the next quarter and confirm how your payments are being made.
📊 Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Re-figure your estimated tax for the next quarter
If you estimated your earnings too high or too low, you need to update your estimates.
If you estimated your earnings too high or too low, complete another Form 1040-ES worksheet to re-figure your estimated tax for the next quarter. You want to estimate your income as accurately as you can to avoid penalties.
Step 2: If you use Direct Debit, contact the IRS to amend your payment agreement
If your estimated tax payments are being paid using Direct Debit, the IRS must make the necessary changes.
If your estimated tax payments are being paid using Direct Debit, re-figure your estimated tax payments then contact the IRS at (800) 829-1040 so an IRS representative can make the necessary changes to your payment agreement.
Step 3: Use the Form 1040-ES payment instructions for your payment method
Follow the instructions that match how you plan to pay.
For specific information on how to pay online, by phone, or by mail, refer to the section of Form 1040-ES titled "How to Pay Estimated Tax."
