Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You can manually enter tax payment from your W-2 as if they were estimated tax payments. Although it seems that you already know this, go to Deductions & Credits->Estimates and Other Taxes Paid->Estimates->State estimated taxes for 2025. Divide the amount from your W-2, box 17, by 4 and enter this amount in each quarter. This will approximate how the money is treated for the underpayment of estimated tax. (Really, if you want to be exact, allocate the box 17 dollars by the number of months in each quarter).

 

Just make sure that at the end, you have not accidentally duplicated the amount of taxes paid to the state.
