Thanks, Laura.
It's weird, but the 'bad' test came right through and I'm waiting on the other.
When I sent them to myself, the 'bonny' took forever to arrive. I wonder what the difference can be?
In any case, thanks!

Hrm. So, it seems the 'anything' messages come through easily. For some reason, the 'bonny' ones get delayed. What on earth could cause that.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Erin, are you talking about form 1040-ES, or something else?

Yes, 1040-ES. I worked on it for three hours, and it's all based on last years gross, Dan's and my gross, where's the form to do business expense deductions quarterly (IS there a form? I want a form!) and do I do the home business and utility deductions in April and OMG I am so getting an accountant if I have to whore for it.
It was really confusing, and I'm a pretty competent researcher. It's all like, I've been in business two months; how the fuck do I know how much I'll have made by 12/31? $300? $10K? (HAHAHAHA.)
Sorry for the barrage, but I've been keeping careful records and then I got to the IRS stuff and I was all "WTFF?"
ETA: bonny, I know you got the one message, but FWIW, I did sent emails to both addys.

Oh my sweet weeping moses.
My own 'bonny' test took 5 HOURS to arrive. How can that be.
Erin, I did ultimately receive both your tests. Thanks for that.
Mystified.

I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.

I was in the same position last year since I started my business in April (which means I had wages in 2009 and for the first part of 2010) and was doing consulting work with no sense of what my income would be. The explanation is bit long but I'd be happy to discuss in e-mail (profile addy is good) if you'd like. It may not be the best way and I might still get audited but I was comfortable that every decision I made was rational and could be justified - which is what I always hope for with taxes.

It's really unlikely you'll be audited. Probably the worst that can happen is a fee for underpayment.
