To apply your IL refund for 2018 to your 2019 taxes, it's very different than prior answers. Here's how you do it now.
Select: State Taxes/ Other situations/ Estimate tax payments for next year/ Yes/ No/ Yes/ (Enter same # shown)/ continue/ (enter same numbers shown)/ continue/ continue/ continue/ select 100% of your actual 2018 tax/ continue/ Apply all (of your tax overpayment to next year)
You do the above even if you don't want to make estimates because if you select you do NOT want to make estimates for next year, it kicks you back out and you can't get to the end where you can apply your overpayment to next yr.
It took me a solid hour to find this after going through literally every screen twice. It took so long because I never figured the overpayment selection would be "hidden" at the end of a long series of tax estimate questions (including if I'm a farmer) that often do not apply to those who simply want their refund carried over each year.
Hey Turbotax, how about adding a simple "check box" to select this next year? Or if not, maybe add "jump to" lines on the review pages for a few key links to save customers hours of hunting. Just a thought!
