Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I realize this isn't your original issue, but based on that one sentence, here's some info that may help you or others later on to be sure you are getting proper credit for any extension payment you made with an extension request.
The entries for both Federal and state extension payments are found on the Federal side of the return interview. So to report your extension payment(s) in the program (or to confirm the amount if autopopulated), here is the navigation in the desktop software:
- Federal tab (it's the PERSONAL tab in Home and Business)
- Subtab Deductions & Credits
- "I'll choose what I work on"
- Your 2024 Deductions & Credits summary page
- Scroll down to topic Estimates and Other Taxes
- Choose subtopic Other Income Taxes and click Start or Update.
- On the "Other Income Taxes" screen, under the topic "Payments with Extension" choose the type of extension payment (Federal, state, local) and correct tax year for the payment, then Start or Update.
