    The only Estimated payment that you could schedule as of today would be number 4....the rest are past due and you can no longer schedule them using the software, youd have to go to the IRS Direct Pay website and pay them from there.

    ... or, print the 9/15/20 payment voucher and mail it with client's check.

    Took two wasted hours on Lacerte support call to realize they had no clue.  Finally got a direct answer on this forum today.
