DiB -

I thought that if one does not pay estimated taxes year after year, the penalties will get more severe...

You may have misconstrued what I said. Estimated taxes are due at four precise dates within the year, with the first on April 15 and the last in January of the following year. Once tax filing day, April 15 of the following year, rolls around, the taxes are fully due and are not 'estimated' taxes any more, but real ones. So all taxes are fully paid each year, and are NOT accumulating through the years. They are just NOT paid at the estimated tax dates, so a penalty is also due in addition to the taxes. This penalty is essentially a 9% annual rate fee assessed on the overdue estimated taxes up until they are paid.

Regards, Don
