IL-1040-ES Estimated Income Tax Payments for Individuals 2024
Am I required to make estimated
income tax payments?
You must make estimated income tax payments if you reasonably expect your 2024 tax liability to exceed $1,000 after subtracting your Illinois
withholding, pass-through withholding, and tax credits for
• income tax paid to other states,
• Illinois Property Tax paid,
• education expenses,
• the Volunteer Emergency Worker Credit,
• the Earned Income Credit,
• pass-through entity tax credit, and
• Schedule 1299-C, Income Tax Subtractions and Credits (for individuals).
You will likely need to make estimated payments if your income is either fully or partially exempt from Illinois withholding.
Complete the Estimated Tax Worksheet to gure your estimated tax and to determine if you are required to make estimated tax payments. If
you plan to le a joint income tax return, you must gure your estimated tax on your joint income.
If you determine that you are required to make estimated payments, you should pay 100 percent of the tax. If your income changes during the
year, you should complete the amended worksheet.
Note: If you do not receive your income evenly throughout the year or if you must begin making estimated payments in midyear, see
Form IL-2210, Computation of Penalties for Individuals, for further details on annualizing your income.
When are my payments due?
Your rst estimated payment is due by April 15, 2024. You may either pay all of your estimated tax at that time or pay your estimated tax in
four equal installments that are due on April 15, 2024; June 17, 2024; September 16, 2024; and January 15, 2025.
Note: If you le on a scal-year basis, please adjust all the due dates to correspond to your tax year.
Are there any exceptions?
You do not have to make estimated payments if you are
• 65 years or older and permanently living in a nursing home or
• a farmer. We consider you a farmer if at least two-thirds of your total federal gross income is from farming.
What if I do not make my payments?
You may be assessed a late-payment penalty if you do not pay the required estimated payments on time. We will apply each payment to the
earliest due date until that liability is paid, unless you provide specic instructions to apply it to another period. However, if you pay at least 90
percent of this year’s tax or at least 100 percent of last year’s tax in four equal timely installments, you may not be subject to this penalty.
For more information about penalties and interest, see Publication 103, Penalties and Interest for Illinois Taxes.
