Estimates apparently not ready until 02/13/2025. This is a relatively simple form.

Luckily they are simple forms.  If the forms were complicated they wouldn’t be ready until April 15th😜

@IRonMaN 👍The good news is that most people who pay estimates usually do not have all of their data too early.

I don't think it's available from IRS either.  They don't like to confuse people who might use it for a 2024 payment instead.

Sometimes a second thought should be given to the knee-jerk reaction of blaming Intuit for everything.

Come on now Bob. I have never heard of someone using a current year estimate to pay prior year tax.

I had a client last year that sent her 2023 1040V and her 1st 2024 1040ES vouchers along with a single check for the total of them both....both got applied to 2024 as estimates (I guess that was the address she chose to mail them to), we figured it out when they sent her a bill with penalty and interest for the 2023 balance due.

@Just-Lisa-Now- there is a very low probability that your clients surname is Einstein, Tesla, or Edison.😉

Paper copies of the 2025 Form 1040-ES have just been posted to IRS web site, if you are it that much of a rush.  If u already filed like me the 1040-ES will say do not file but IRS will still accept your return. First payment not due until April, so what the rush.

TurboTax has to incorporate forms to make sure they will work for every filer type. You can go back into the software sometime soon and update the Forms.

You may be experts but my TurboTax software sent me here and while here I knew the answer to the 1040 ES maybe I should not share that info

someone even said that the 1040ES does not print with Do not file.  Well since it is not up to date in software the ES for 2025 does say do not file.  I have the print out since I filled on Jan 31.  

IRS still accepted the return since they know as of Jan 31 those forms not ready. 

maybe after 25 plus years I need to use other software maybe there experts will appreciate some info rather than telling me to go away

Per colleague and friend who uses Drake software: estimates are fine and do not print "do not file" on it.

ProSeries should change due date for payment 3 to 9/15 (National Double Cheeseburger Day).

Just talked with support today (02/18/25) and was informed that the 1040-ES would be ready by Thursday or Friday of this week.   Fingers crossed

Great thank you.   I was looking for that in Pro. I knew they hid it somewhere.   When you have a question only once every couple of years its hard to remember where they keep the secret button.   For this season I will hold on to that link you included.   Appreciate it.

Does anybody at Proseries know what day it is? 2/13 is long gone.

Get that 8 eight year old intern on this and post the update!

My clients, who are tax involved, want their returns completed and estimates prepared now.

Did they get rid of too many programmers to pay that IRS fine?

IRS wanted to delay release of these forms as much as possible, although they did make them available online a week or so ago.  As I have noted earlier, it's to prevent people from using a 2025 form to make their final 2024 payment.  Also, IRS doesn't want pieces of paper mailed to them anyway.  If someone is "tax involved," IRS wants them to be "computer involved" also.

That is if we care what IRS wants.
