An alternative to quarterly payments would be to have excess withholdings taken from your wife's wages, with the amount of excess withholdings for the year approximating the total of your quarterly payments. Of course this assumes that you're filing a joint 1040 and that you know in advance what the total of your annual quarterly payments will be. [Disclaimer: I'm not a tax acccountant. I have excess withholdings taken from my pension check to cover any small gains that I would have when selling stock to cover emergencies, etc. So far I've avoided quarterly returns.]
