Sales Tax Prepayment

What is the name of your state? California

I'm a little confused over my Sales Tax and Use form for this month. I have always prepaid the entire tax for the month, and there has been an option on the form that said pay "at least 90%" of the tax due. This month, the form says to pay "90%", and when I check out the instructions on line, the wording from this period is changed from "at least 90%" to "equal to 90%". Am I really required to not pay the tax in full? It seems kind of pointless, and I'd rather just get it over with.

You can pay more than 90% if you want, it will work itself out on your quarterly return.
