I've always had to pay the IT-204-LL fee separately. Mail in check along with form. My current problem is that I filed the IT-204 return on Friday 3/10/23 when E-filing finally became available and Turbotax accepted it but I have yet to hear that NYS has received & accepted the return. I mailed in a paper return to NYS just in case they've screwed this up. Turbotax really sucks when it comes to NYS\NYC tax returns............
