Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@VictoriaD75  @jms206  @VolvoGirl 

 

I’d love to ask if any of you has insight into a very similar question to @jms206 ’s question from August 2021. I’m using TurboTax Desktop for tax year 2018.

 

I made tax payments in Aug. 2021 through IRS Direct Pay for tax year 2018, and I am just now trying to file 2018 with TurboTax.  I’ve tried to follow @VictoriaD75 ’s advice on going to “Federal estimated taxes” to enter my 2021 payment (simply changing the ‘Date paid’ field), but TurboTax is not allowing me to enter any date later than 12/31/2019.

 

What should I do to ensure my tax filing reflects the payment made in 2021? Or, should I complete the filing and just ignore the payment I made in 2021, and trust that the IRS will see that ‘credit’ on my account? 

 

Many thanks for any help,

Kate
