Not necessarily. The state estimated payments would still qualify to be deducted as a tax payment if you use Schedule A itemized deductions instead of the standard deduction. If your fourth quarter payment was made before January 1st, then all four quarters of state estimated payments could be included as a deduction instead of only the first three quarters.
