State tax filing

State extension payments are entered in Deductions & Credits > Estimates and Other Taxes Paid and not in the state programs. This is because state taxes paid can be a federal deduction. Amounts entered here will automatically transfer to the state that you selected next to the payment amount.

 

To enter your state estimated tax payments:

  1. Type estimated taxes in Search in the upper right
  2. Select Go to Estimated Tax Payments
  3. Scroll down to Payments with Extension
  4. START/REVISIT Payments with 2020 state extension
  5. Select your state(s) in the State dropdown menu and enter the 2020 state taxes paid with extension.
