Screen DCEst - District of Columbia Estimates (1120)
Show all hidden content
Overpayment Application
Application of current year overpayment
These code options are the same as those in the federal Est Screen. They instruct the application on how to apply any current-year overpayment. This decision affects what is printed on Page 2 of the return and the calculation of next year’s estimated tax payments. The overpayment options are listed in the drop-down list and in the following table.
Code | Result |
|---|---|
1 | Refund 100 percent of the overpayment. This is the default option. |
2 | Apply 100 percent of the overpayment to next year’s estimate; refund excess. This option applies the overpayment to each estimate in full until the overpayment is exhausted or all estimated payments are made, in which case the excess is refunded. |
3 | Apply to next year’s first estimate; refund excess. |
4 | Apply equally to all next-year estimates; refund excess. This option divides the total overpayment by the number of next year payments desired, applies this amount to each estimate, and refunds any excess overpayment. |
5 | Apply the portion of the overpayment shown in the Overpayment to be applied (Code 5 or 8) field to the estimates until the amount is exhausted or all payments are made, in which case the excess is refunded. |
6 | Apply to next year’s first and second estimates; refund excess. |
7 | Apply 100 percent of this year’s overpayment to next year’s estimates; provide no refund. This option applies the entire overpayment to next year even if estimates are not required or the overpayment is in excess of the payments required. No refund is made. |
8 | Apply amount specified below in the Overpayment to be applied (Code 5 or 8) field to next year’s estimate. This option allows an overpayment to be specified even when estimates are not required or generated. |
note
New clients and converted clients may benefit from the District of Columbia’s new client options. Choose Setup, 1120 Corporation, then District of Columbia tab, select the New Client Options button, and enter the code in the
Overpayment application
field. The selection there transfers to the state input screen for newly created and converted clients and is used to calculate the overpayment application. The transferred code may be changed in this field if necessary and is not overwritten by the selection in the New Client Options dialog.Estimates
Form D-20ES - declaration for next year
These codes are the same as those used in federal Screen Est. They tell the application which method to use to determine the amount of the next year’s estimated tax. If option
2

is entered in the Application of current year overpayment
field, the application defaults to 1
in the Form D-20ES - declaration for next year

|---|---|

2 | Use the current-year income tax liability plus the adjustment in the Amount to adjust current year liability (Code 2) field. If this option is selected, also enter an adjustment to the current-year tax liability in the Amount to adjust current year liability (Code 2) field. If the adjustment represents a decrease, enter a negative amount. |
3 | Use the current-year income tax liability. Estimates are prepared even if the current-year tax liability is greater than or equal to $1,001. |
5 | Use the amounts entered in the Amounts for next year’s estimates (Code 5 or 9) fields, before overpayment. If you select this option, the amounts entered in the Amounts for next year’s estimates (Code 5 or 9) fields are adjusted by any overpayment applied. |
8 | Use the projected tax liability. Estimates are prepared even if the projected tax liability is less than $1,001. |
9 | Use the amounts entered in the Amounts for next year’s estimates (Code 5 or 9) fields. If you select this option, the amounts entered in the Amounts for next year’s estimates (Code 5 or 9) fields are not adjusted by any overpayment applied. |
