Publication 225
taxmap/pubs/p225-070.htm#en_us_publink1000218906If you do not pay all your required estimated tax for 2011 by January 17, 2012, or file your 2011 return and pay any tax due by March 1, 2011, you should use Form 2210-F, Underpayment of Estimated Tax by Farmers and Fishermen, to determine if you owe a penalty. If you owe a penalty but do not file Form 2210-F with your return and pay the penalty, you will get a notice from the IRS. You should pay the penalty as instructed by the
notice.
If you file your return by April 17, 2012, and pay the bill by the time specified in the notice, the IRS will not charge you interest on the penalty.
 | Do not ignore a penalty notice, even if you think it is in error. You may get a penalty notice even though you filed your return on time, attached Form 2210-F, and met the gross-income-from-farming requirement. If you receive a penalty notice for underpaying estimated tax and you think it is in error, write to the address on the notice and explain why you think the notice is in error. Include a computation similar to the one in Example 1 (earlier), showing that you met the gross income from farming
requirement. |
