The second-quarter estimated tax deadline for 2024 is June 17, and you could owe a penalty if you don't send a payment, according to the IRS. You typically owe estimated tax payments for income without withholdings, such as from contract jobs, freelancing or gig economy work, or if you run a small business. But quarterly estimated tax payments are not just for the self-employed or small business owners, experts say. You must make quarterly estimated tax payments if you expect to have at least $1,000 in tax liability or more on your 2024 return. For the 2024 tax year, the estimated tax deadlines are April 15, June 17, Sept. 16 and Jan. 15, 2025.
