You request a waiver (see page 2 of the instructions) of part of your penalty. You must figure your penalty and waiver
amount and file Form 2210.
Your income varied during the year and your penalty is reduced or eliminated when figured using the annualized income
installment method. You must figure the penalty using Schedule Al and file Form 2210.
Your penalty is lower when figured by treating the federal income tax withheld from your income as paid on the dates it was
actually withheld, instead of in equal amounts on the payment due dates. You must figure your penalty and file Form 2210.

Part III

Short Method
You may use the short method if:
● You made no estimated tax payments (or your only payments were withheld
federal income tax), or
● You paid the same amount of estimated tax on each of the four payment
due dates.

Can You Use the
Short Method?

You must use the regular method (Part IV) instead of the short method if:
● You made any estimated tax payments late,
● You checked box C or D in Part II, or
● You are filing Form 1040NR or 1040NR-EZ and you did not receive wages
as an employee subject to U.S. income tax withholding.
Note: If any payment was made earlier than the due date, you may use the short method, but using it may cause you to pay a
larger penalty than the regular method. If the payment was only a few days early, the difference is likely to be small.

Must You Use the
Regular Method?
