Taxpayers with large amounts of interest, dividends, and other income not subject to withholding are also generally required to make estimated payments. Any individual taxpayer who has estimated tax for the year of $1,000 or more, after subtracting withholding, and whose withholding does not equal or exceed the "required annual payment," must make quarterly estimated payments. The required annual payment is the smallest of three statutory amounts based on either the current year's tax, preceding year's tax, or the tax based on the annualized of current year income. A special rule applies to individuals with adjusted gross income in excess of $150,000 for the previous year. Payments are made in four installments on April 15, June 15, and September 15 of the tax year, and January 15 of the following year, based on the taxpayer's estimate of the amount of the tax liability for the year.
