Like a bunch of people I looked for and couldn't find the State estimated tax entry in the state return, so I went to the forms and entered the payments there.
Then after doing more forum research I discovered that state estimated tax payments are entered in the Federal section. So I entered the estimated tax payments there. Since now both returns matched I thought I was done.
Then I found an error in the entry of state estimated payments, and needed to correct the numbers, which I did in the Federal estimated tax section.
THIS DID NOT CARRY OVER TO THE STATE RETURN
I updated the state return manually (in the form view for the state's estimated payment form).
While now the two match and are correct, it did not recalculate the 2025 estimated tax payments.
QUESTIONS:
- How do I get things back in sync so I don't have to manually sync the state estimated tax payments
- How do I get TT to recalculate the 2025 estimated payments
As far as TT is concerned, there no errors on my return (and there were no errors when the Federal and State estimated tax payment numbers were different -- it should have caught that).
