I received a letter from NYS Tax and Finance stating that I owed $2014 for unpaid taxes. Line 75 of IT-201 was filled out saying that I had already paid the state estimated taxes. I didn't realize this until I was about to submit my return and Turbo tax asked me what state I paid my taxes to. I put NY in and my taxes went down to $3724.00 that I owed. My question is, who filled in that line to begin with. I was never prompted for it. I was prepared to pay the NY State $5738, but only paid $3724 and am now penalized. I called them and they explained my mistake, but I am now questioning Turbo Tax as to why this happened. They are forgiving my penalty and late fee, so all is good. Just wondering what happened. Thank you
