I filed an extension and paid my taxes due in April. How do I file the completed return without paying the taxes due again?

I filed an extension in April and did not file my completed return then but I did send the IRS a check for the taxes due on time. Now I'm trying to file the unchanged return with TurboTax, and it wants me to pay the taxes TurboTax calculated in April when I file the return now.

If your extension payment did not automatically show up on your 1040 or state return you need to enter it.  So make sure it's not already there before you enter it!

 

For 2022 Federal Extension payments should be on schedule 3 line 10. And go to 1040 line 31.

 

You can type estimates paid in the search box at the top of your return and click Find and it will give you a link to Jump To the screen where you enter Extension Payments.

 

To enter the amount you paid with an extension (including state extension)  go to

Federal Taxes (or Personal for desktop H&B version)

Deductions and Credits

Then scroll way down to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid

Other Income Taxes - Click the Start or Update button
