I paid nj state tax twice accidentally in two different times. One through turbo tax direct debit, the other payment through online web payment. How to get the money back

 

After you file

If you accidentally paid twice, you should be able to contact the State of New Jersey (a contact link is below) and request that they refund the excess amount to you.  You may be asked to write a letter or fill out a form.  

Often a state will refund an excess payment automatically when they process your return, but sometimes it gets treated as an estimated payment for the next year.
