There’s a line in the payments section of your 1040 or 1040A right below the line where you enter your withholding. It’s line 39 on 1040A, or line 65 on a 1040. Enter the $315 there. Tax software probably asks for something like “amount of estimated payments made for 2006″ – the specific words would depend on your software but should be something like that.
You don’t need to send any documentation with your return – the IRS already has the amount on their records.
