Overpayment Application

Application of current year overpayment
The codes used in this field are the same as those in federal Screen Est. They instruct how to apply any current year overpayment. This affects what is printed on Page 1 of the return and the calculation of next year’s estimated tax payments. The overpayment options are listed in the following table or can be selected from the dropdown list.

1
Refund 100 percent of the overpayment. This is the default option.

field to estimates until exhausted, refund excess.
6
Apply to second estimate of next year; refund excess.

8
Apply amount specified in the
Overpayment to be applied (Code 5 or 8)
field to next year’s estimate. This option allows an overpayment to be specified when estimates are not required or generated.
