Form 1040-ES
Estimated Tax for Individuals

Purpose of This Package

Use Form 1040-ES to figure and pay your estimated tax
for 2017.
Estimated tax is the method used to pay tax on income
that is not subject to withholding (for example, earnings
from self-employment, interest, dividends, rents, alimony,
etc.). In addition, if you do not elect voluntary withholding,
you should make estimated tax payments on other
taxable income, such as unemployment compensation
and the taxable part of your social security benefits.
Change of address. If your address has changed, file
Form 8822, Change of Address, to update your record.
Future developments. For the latest information about
developments related to Form 1040-ES and its
instructions, such as legislation enacted after they were
published, go to www.irs.gov/form1040es.

Who Must Make Estimated Tax
Payments

General Rule

In most cases, you must pay estimated tax for 2017 if both
of the following apply.
1. You expect to owe at least $1,000 in tax for 2017,
after subtracting your withholding and refundable credits.
2. You expect your withholding and refundable credits
to be less than the smaller of:
a. 90% of the tax to be shown on your 2017 tax return,
or
b. 100% of the tax shown on your 2016 tax return.
Your 2016 tax return must cover all 12 months.
Note. These percentages may be different if you are a
farmer, fisherman, or higher income taxpayer. See
Special Rules, later.

Exception. You do not have to pay estimated tax for
2017 if you were a U.S. citizen or resident alien for all of
2016 and you had no tax liability for the full 12-month
2016 tax year. You had no tax liability for 2016 if your total
tax was zero or you did not have to file an income tax
return.
There are special rules for farmers, fishermen, certain
household employers, and certain higher income
taxpayers.

Jan 06, 2017

Household employers. When estimating the tax on your
2017 tax return, include your household employment
taxes if either of the following applies.
You will have federal income tax withheld from wages,
pensions, annuities, gambling winnings, or other income.
You would be required to make estimated tax payments
to avoid a penalty even if you did not include household
employment taxes when figuring your estimated tax.
Higher income taxpayers. If your adjusted gross
income (AGI) for 2016 was more than $150,000 ($75,000
if your filing status for 2017 is married filing separately),
substitute 110% for 100% in (2b) under General Rule,
earlier. This rule does not apply to farmers or fishermen.

Increase Your Withholding

If you also receive salaries and wages, you may be able to
avoid having to make estimated tax payments on your
other income by asking your employer to take more tax
out of your earnings. To do this, file a new Form W-4,
Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate, with your
employer.

The estimated tax rules apply to:
U.S. citizens and resident aliens;
Residents of Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands,
Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana
Islands, and American Samoa; and
Nonresident aliens (use Form 1040-ES (NR)).

Special Rules

Farmers and fishermen. If at least two-thirds of your
gross income for 2016 or 2017 is from farming or fishing,
substitute 662 3% for 90% in (2a) under General Rule.

Generally, if you receive a pension or annuity you can
use Form W-4P, Withholding Certificate for Pension or
Annuity Payments, to start or change your withholding
from these payments.
You also can choose to have federal income tax
withheld from certain government payments. For details,
see Form W-4V, Voluntary Withholding Request.

Additional Information You May Need
You can find most of the information you will need in Pub.
505, Tax Withholding and Estimated Tax, and in the
instructions for the 2016 Form 1040 or Form 1040A.
For details on how to get forms and publications, see
the 2016 Instructions for Form 1040 or Form 1040A.

What's New

Use your 2016 tax return as a guide in figuring your 2017
estimated tax, but be sure to consider the following.
Individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN) renewal. If you were assigned an ITIN before January 1,
2013, or if you have an ITIN that you haven’t included on a
tax return in the last three consecutive years, you may
need to renew it. For more information, see the
instructions for Form W-7.
Standard deduction. If you do not itemize your
deductions, you can take the 2017 standard deduction
listed in the following chart for your filing status.

Cat. No. 11340T

IF your 2017 filing status is...
Married filing jointly or
Qualifying widow(er)

exemption(s) for all 12 months of 2017. See Form 8965
and its instructions for more information.

THEN your standard
deduction is...

Advance payments of the premium tax credit. If you
buy health care insurance through the Health Insurance
Marketplace, you may be eligible for advance payments
of the premium tax credit to help pay for your insurance
coverage. Receiving too little or too much in advance will
affect your refund or balance due. Promptly report
changes in your income or family size to your
Marketplace. See Form 8962 and its instructions for more
information.

You will need:
The 2017 Estimated Tax Worksheet,
The Instructions for the 2017 Estimated Tax Worksheet,
The 2017 Tax Rate Schedules, and
Your 2016 tax return and instructions to use as a guide
to figuring your income, deductions, and credits (but be
sure to consider the items listed under What's New,
earlier).

$3,100

Matching estimated tax payments to income. If you
receive your income unevenly throughout the year (for
example, because you operate your business on a
seasonal basis or you have a large capital gain late in the
year), you may be able to lower or eliminate the amount of
your required estimated tax payment for one or more
periods by using the annualized income installment
method. See chapter 2 of Pub. 505 for details.

Payments, later.

Your standard deduction is zero if (a) your spouse
itemizes on a separate return, or (b) you were a
CAUTION dual-status alien and you do not elect to be taxed
as a resident alien for 2017.

You cannot make joint estimated tax payments if
you or your spouse is a nonresident alien, you are
CAUTION separated under a decree of divorce or separate
maintenance, or you and your spouse have different tax
years.

Personal exemption amount for certain taxpayers.
For tax years beginning in 2017, the personal exemption
amount remains unchanged at $4,050 for taxpayers with
adjusted gross incomes below $156,900. The personal
exemption amount for taxpayers with adjusted gross
incomes above this amount may be reduced.

Additionally, individuals of the same sex and opposite sex
who are in registered domestic partnerships, civil unions,
or other similar formal relationships that are not marriages
under state law cannot make joint estimated tax
payments. These individuals can take credit only for the
estimated tax payments that he or she made.

Limitation on itemized deductions. For tax year 2017,
itemized deductions for taxpayers with adjusted gross
income above $156,900 may be reduced.

You can pay all of your estimated tax by April 18, 2017, or
in four equal amounts by the dates shown below.

and pay the entire balance due with your return.

Health care coverage. When you file your 2017 tax
return in 2018, you will need to either (1) indicate on your
return that you and your family had health care coverage
throughout 2017, (2) claim an exemption from the health
care coverage requirement for some or all of 2017, or (3)

TIP payments. To do so, make a copy of one of your

unused estimated tax payment vouchers, fill it in,
and mail it with your payment. If you make more than four
payments, to avoid a penalty, make sure the total of the
amounts you pay during a payment period is at least as
much as the amount required to be paid by the due date
for that period. For other payment methods, see How To
Pay Estimated Tax, later.

In some cases, you may owe a penalty when you file your
return. The penalty is imposed on each underpayment for
the number of days it remains unpaid. A penalty may be
applied if you did not pay enough estimated tax for the
year or you did not make the payments on time or in the
required amount. A penalty may apply even if you have an
overpayment on your tax return.

No income subject to estimated tax during first payment period. If, after March 31, 2017, you have a large
change in income, deductions, additional taxes, or credits
that requires you to start making estimated tax payments,
you should figure the amount of your estimated tax
payments by using the annualized income installment
method, explained in chapter 2 of Pub. 505. If you use the
annualized income installment method, file Form 2210,
Underpayment of Estimated Tax by Individuals, Estates,
and Trusts, including Schedule AI, with your 2017 tax
return even if no penalty is owed.

The penalty may be waived under certain conditions.
See chapter 4 of Pub. 505 for details.

Farmers and fishermen. If at least two-thirds of your
gross income for 2016 or 2017 is from farming or fishing,
you can do one of the following.
Pay all of your estimated tax by January 16, 2018.
File your 2017 Form 1040 by March 1, 2018, and pay
the total tax due. In this case, 2017 estimated tax
