field.
note
If the current-year tax is less than the minimum filing requirements, the vouchers do not print.

Use the current year liability plus the adjustment in the
Amount for code #2
field. If you select this option, also enter an adjustment to the current year liability in the
Amount for code #2
field. If the adjustment represents a decrease, enter a negative amount.
3
Use the current year liability even if less than $100. This option allows estimates to be calculated even when the tax liability is less than the minimum amount required for estimate payments.
4
Print vouchers with amount fields blank. The application prints blank estimate vouchers.
5
Use amounts entered below before overpayment. Enter amounts in the
Amts for Code 5 or 9
or

Use amounts entered below.
Amts for Code 5 or 9 / Estimates Paid
These fields serve two purposes. Use these fields to specify the estimate amounts for each quarter, or use them to enter any estimate payments already made toward the next year’s tax liability.
If code
5
is selected in the
Estimated tax - declaration for next year
field, enter the desired quarterly payments in these fields. The application adjusts these amounts by the overpayment applied and prints these amounts on the vouchers.
If code
9
is selected in the
Estimated tax - declaration for next year
field, enter the desired quarterly payments in these fields. The application does not adjust these amounts by any overpayment applied and prints these amounts on the vouchers.
If code
1
,
2
, or
3
is selected in the
Estimated tax - declaration for next year
field, enter the amounts paid for each next year estimate. These amounts are subtracted from the calculated quarterly gross estimated tax liability to determine the net voucher amount.
