PDF Editor FAQ

I owe the IRS ~$13,000 in taxes, and opted to pay in installments with $9,000 down. What are the 1040-ES and 1040-V vouchers for?

The income tax cycle:1. Jan 1, year begins.2. You earn money.2a. You pay withholding as you go.2b. You pay estimated tax as you go.3. Dec 31, year ends.4. You calculate actual tax owed.5. Subtract amounts you already paid via 2a and 2b.6. Settle the difference (Feds pay you; you pay Feds).If it turns out your actual tax for 2014 is more than the amount you paid in 2014 withholding and 2014 estimated tax, then you pay the difference, and include a 1040-V for that difference with your 2014 return. In other words, the 1040-V is for step 6 for the year 2014.If you anticipate that you're going to earn money in 2015 and not have withholding taken out of it, then you have to pay estimated tax as you go. That's what the 2015 1040-ES forms are for. You file one of them per quarter. In other words, the 1040-ES are for step 2b for the year 2015 (which is still in progress, of course).

What tax form should I use if one is deceased and did not file taxes the year before? I.e. died in 2016 and didn't file in 2015. Do I even need to file especially if there is no spouse or dependents? I project a refund won’t be worth the time.

If there is a refund, no, it's not necessary. If the deceased owed the IRS and there is an estate it should be filed. You use a 2015 1040

Can I file a claim with TurboTax for filing the wrong form for me? Instead of filling the 1040NR form in 2015 and 2016, TurboTax filled 1040 for me instead. Now I need to file for an amendment, which will cost $1200.

It is doubtful that you can sue TurboTax for this.I’m also curious why the amendment will cost you $1200. You do realize that at least part of that charge is the charge you would have been assessed to file the 1040NR in the first place, right? While there is a program in which the IRS pays a subsidy to tax preparers to offer tax preparation to low-income individuals for free, there is no such subsidy for 1040NR filers.That said, I think $1200 is a bit steep for two amendments for a 1040NR unless you had an unusually complicated return.
