@celticsur , while I am not familiar with the on-line product and its screens, suggest you go back to the tab  " Personal Info" and make sure that your spouse  does not have "this person passed away ".  It is easy to miss

Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the online program screen Click on Tools Click on Delete a form   Note - There may be multiple pages of your tax return forms and schedules so click on the page number or right arrow (>) shown at the bottom of the federal tax return forms.

A prepayment is considered an estimated payment. Follow these steps: Open to Federal Deductions & Credits.  Look for "Estimates and Other Taxes Paid." You may need to click "See all tax breaks" or "I'll choose what I work on." Select "Estimated Tax Payments." Enter your Federal and State payments separately.

If the payments were for taxes owed on a prior year tax return, then you do not enter the federal income taxes paid on the federal tax return.  You can enter the state income taxes paid on a federal return.   To enter state income taxes paid - Click on Federal Taxes (Personal using Home and Business) Click on Deductions and Credits Click on I'll choose what I work on (if shown) Scroll down to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid On Income Taxes Paid, click on the start or update button   On the next screen scroll down to Other Income Taxes Paid in 2025

@IndianExpat , Namsste ji Assuming that this was not a rental property,  TurboTax will ( form 8949 or Schedule-D ), sales price  ( I would use a  back/detail sheet  to record sales price, LESS  i.e. entered as negative amount, costs associated such as  commission, sales prep costs, transfer  tax etc. ), your basis in the prop. ( this would be acquisition cost + costs of improvements,  LESS any accumulated depreciation ). Turbo will then  compute  taxable gain per US tax laws --- short-term or long-term.   The Indian Tax ( whether you use the older method ( 20% and indexing ) or  new method ( 12.5% and no indexing ) , when finalized is your foreign taxes paid -- TDS is not good to use  =-- because  you risk having to file an amended return to match with reality.   Form 1116 will  recognize  the full  foreign  taxes paid but allowable FTC is  limited to the lesser of  Foreign taxes Paid and  that imposed by US on the same doubly taxed  foreign source income.   Is there more I can do for you ?   Namaste ji

I am not sure what you are asking, but the instructions for Schedule C line 19 (page 😎 state: If the plan included you as a self-employed person, enter the contributions made as an employer on your behalf on Schedule 1 (Form 1040), line 16, not on Schedule C If this is not a self-employed situation or if you are asking on what forms this employer contribution appears, please come back and give us a lot more context to your question.

Thanks @rmc-az .  That looks like a fine place to put it, along with the "Charitable Contributions made in exchange for State Tax Credit (SALT Safe Harbor)" explanation.  (Done only via Forms, not the interview, I believe.  That's the Federal 1040 "State and Local Tax Deduction Worksheet" / "State Tax Ded" in the forms list, line 17, for those reading along.)  Note that these entries are flagged as Overrides and are red.  The Review checks pass.  Unknown if e-filing is blocked due to overrides.   For completeness, also enter the total state tax credit amount on the STATE TAXES interview "Adjustment to State Income Tax Deduction" page.  This entry shows up on Schedule A(140) line 7 and subtracts from the itemized deduction amount.   Interestingly, this override entry on State Tax Ded line 17 does NOT propagate to the AZ return "Tax Payments Worksheet" / "Tax Pymt Wks" in the forms list, so it looks like the AZ return is not messed up.   TT developers:  Please make this a State tax credit interview page in the Federal taxes, and ensure that the tax deduction taken on the Federal return is not included as an actual tax payment in the AZ State return.  All without triggering overrides and breaking e-file.
