tax client had a lump sum this year BUT in 2026 it won't happen.  The program requests over 5500 a quarter and he should only be paying 2800.  I over road it to the 2800 and it was rejected.  He is a senior and will not mail in any payments .. demands them to be on line as he's always had it from other preparers.  I saw where someone said you can only do one at a time.... so tried it that way too...  first all 4 at 2800 and it was rejected... then re submitted with just this one for 2800 and it was rejected

on the estimated worksheet page uncheck the 110% box and fill in the lower box where you put the amount you want in
