@DawnC, you didn't address the qualified dividend issue that I raised.
When preparing Federal Estimated Taxes and enter your qualified dividends on the "Enter Investment Gains and Losses" page, the qualified dividends entry is not included in your taxable income and not used to calculate your estimated taxes.
When preparing California Estimated Taxes, TurboTax copies the taxable income from the Federal Estimated Tax calculations to the California Estimated Tax form but does not add the qualified dividends to the taxable income and doesn't deduct the taxable portion of your Social Security benefit (there's no place to enter this).
For 2020, TurboTax Premier's estimated tax logic determined that I would owe no Federal or California income taxes and didn't generate any estimated tax forms.
