State tax filing

No, you do not want to enter the state tax refund you received, but rather any state tax payments you made, including:

 

 - Amounts withheld on your W-2, W-2G, and 1099

 - Estimated tax payments 

  - Add any paid this year for last year (it's common for the fourth quarterly payment to be made in January)

 - Overpayment from prior year applied toward your current year return

 - Payments made with an extension of time to file

 - Payments made when you filed your return

 - Refundable credits
