Hello alejandrotm84!

Having an accurate tax estimate can make us comfortable, and this is what we want you to feel.

I would recommend reviewing your transactions to see if they are categorized correctly. There may be some expenses or deductions that are not recorded yet, which causes you to have a larger tax estimate.

If you've already reviewed them, but you're still uncomfortable with the tax amount, please take a moment to reach out to Support. They can use a screen-sharing tool to view your records to understand them better.

You can always reach back out if you have other questions about QuickBooks Self-Employed.
