When you prepare your 2024 return, TurboTax  automatically calculate your 2025 estimated tax payments and prepare 1040-ES vouchers if we think you may be at risk for an underpayment penalty next year. You can also calculate your 2025 estimated taxes and generate payment vouchers by doing this: Open or continue your return. Navigate to the 1040-ES section: TurboTax Online/Mobile: Go to 1040-ES.or use magnifying glass at top right of the screen to search for 1040-es (be sure to include the dash) and select the Jump to link. Answer No to the question Do you want to change your W-4 withholdings for 2025? Answer questions about your 2025 filing status, income, and deductions. Eventually, you'll come to the Print Vouchers? screen. Answer Yes and we'll include your 2025 1040-ES payment vouchers when you print a copy of your return later.

Also, is this how you are doing it?    Did you download the installation software to your computer and launched the installation with the steps in this FAQ?   FAQ:  How do I get started with TurboTax desktop? https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/license-information/install-turbotax-cd-download-software-license-code/L1wFOSXur_US_en_US  

Although it is not an Estimated Payment, this is where you need to go.  Below the boxes for Estimated Payments, click on 'Add Another Payment' where you can enter the date and amount you paid.   @MKM26   

That’s the thing it doesn’t matter what I select the same screen keeps popping up and won’t let me move on. Is this an issue with the site because I’ve tried different devices and it does the same thing.

@tenniseric98 , IMHO -- these are income to you.  This is because the entity giving you these  get to write off these as expenses.  However, if the value  of the  gift is under de-minimis  (  mostly these  are like  #25 or under   but you should look at the instructions of the applicable form ), you don't recognize this as  taxable income.   Note that the general rule is all income is taxable  unless specifically excluded by the code  AND all expenses are not deductible unless specifically allowed by the code.

Are you following the steps to amend your return using TurboTax?   The amended return will tell you if you owe or will get a refund based on the Amended return as if the original refund was received (or the original tax was paid).  Could it be that the original return shows a larger refund than the Amended return meaning that you will need to pay back some of the original refund? 

If the earnings were on a W-2, you probably need to check your entries as you may have a typo.   But if the income was from self-employment, those earnings are taxed differently.   CA filing requirements.    Look at your California tax return to see how your tax was computed.  

So you haven't recently attempted to install it?   This is a long shot, but sometimes long shots are successful.  😁     Are you using Windows, and could you have an incompletely installed Windows Update either installing in the background or waiting to be installed?   Or is some other software trying to update/install?
