Form 2210 is used to determine if you owe a penalty for underpaying your estimated taxes. If you owe a penalty, Form 2210 is also used to figure the amount of the penalty.
You can use Form 2210 to calculate your penalty, even if you're not required to. In that case, enter the penalty on your return, but do not file the Form 2210 with your return.
If you or your business made at least two-thirds of your gross income from farming or fishing, you should use Form 2210-F to see if you owe a penalty.
