    Normally estimated quarterly tax payments are for independent contractors, not employees, for federal tax purposes.

    There are two different sets of estimated tax withholding procedures, depending on whether or not you are considered to be an 'employee' ( receiving a weekly paycheck, with estimated taxes withheld and sent to the IRS by your 'employer'), or considered to be an independent contractor business operator ( no paycheck, just cash payments - where you are required to file estimated tax vouchers and send in estimated tax checks to the IRS on a quarterly basis ).

    The fines for not paying quarterlies on miscellaneous or business income are pretty modest. IF you made a ton of money in that month you can pay on an estimated tax voucher anytime, as the fine is based on when the quarterly was due[april 15th in this case]

    If you did not make a ton of on the books money, or if you had significant W2 income and tax withholding I would not worry about it.
