Use the following steps to go to the section of your return to
enter the estimated taxes that you paid in 2016:
On the top row of the
TurboTax online screen, click on Search (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax
locate the search box in the upper right corner)
This opens a box where you
can type in “estimated tax payments” (be sure to enter exactly as shown
here) and click the magnifying glass (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax,
click Find)
The search results will
give you an option to “Jump to estimated tax payments”
- Click on the blue “Jump
to estimated tax payments” link
Usually, if you receive a refund, estimated taxes would not be
needed for the following year unless it was triggered by a certain type of
income that may not have taxes withheld.
Income items such as capital gains or self-employment are such
examples.
