@jabrew23  (Assuming you e-filed them together, at the same time...)   The state forms do not "Transmit" until the IRS "Accepts" the Federal filing.   That's a separate step in the process... first the Federal file is "Transmitted" to the IRS....then the IRS computers do a cursory check of the Federal data, which can take from ~15min-to-48 hrs (usually), and then the IRS either "Accepts" or "Rejects" the Federal filing.  IF the Federal is "accepted" , only then is your state tax file transmitted to the state.....but not if the IRS rejects the Federal filing.   Why?  IF the Feds "Reject", then something is apparently wrong, and the state doesn't really want to see anything until the Fed part is fully correct.   Will the state filing be considered to be late if the IRS takes too long?  Usually not a problem...your initial submission date/time is a part of the data being filed...so long as that was before the deadline, then no problem.

I'm thinking you did a recharacterization of your $8,000 into a Roth, not a conversion, - a serious error, or entered it as such. What is the distribution code on the 1099-R for this action?   @manwithnoplan 

Ohio has a reciprocal agreement, on wages, with all neighboring states. No Ohio state taxes are withheld or due and you do not need to file an OH return. But your home state will tax you on your Ohio income. If Ohio taxes are mistakenly withheld, you have to file an Ohio return to get a refund.* You should ask your employer to stop withholding so you don't have to file an Ohio return every year. However the reciprocity agreement does not apply to local city taxes. You are not required to file a local city return, but you are also not entitled to a refund of the city withholding (box19 on your W-2), unless there was an error in the amount. If you are subject to a KY county or city tax, you should check to see if the KY city will give you a credit for the OH city tax withheld. KY does allow an itemized deduction (Schedule A) for local tax paid.   *If you indicated you were not a full year Ohio, at the Ohio residency screen, you will be asked  if you had Ohio income and were never an Ohio resident. If you check that box, you’ll get “Ohio Compensation deduction”, under miscellaneous, at the “Here’s the Income Ohio handles differently” screen. If you indicated you were a KY resident in the personal info section and an Ohio non resident, at the Ohio residency screen in the OH state section; you’ll get “Neighboring State Compensation” screen early in the Ohio program. There you enter the box 16 amount from your W-2 that Ohio taxed. Or After indication you were a non resident of Ohio and a KY resident at the Confirm Ohio residency screen -"Here's the Income that Ohio Handles Differently"   -Miscellaneous    -Wages of Full year residents of neighboring states Screen shot at https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/4256143-can-not-figure-out-adjustment-allocation-part-in-my-taxes-i-live-in-michigan-full-year-and-work-in-ohio-with-no-other-income-how-do-i-fill-this-out-or-do-i-need-to   All of your income is to be allocated to non-Ohio. Since some of your W-2 income has been allocated to OH, you need to re-enter that in the box titled “Compensation Earned  in Ohio”. That box is specifically for the wage/salary income of full year residents of reciprocal (neighboring) states.  Screen shot at https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/state-taxes/discussion/re-ohio-credits/01/2867672#M137181

Yeah, I had tried that before. It still doesn't show my balance online, and it has my current payment plan is pending. There is no option to actually revise it, so I think I just need to give it another few weeks before it reports properly online. Then, I'm hoping I can simply modify it and then add a monthly auto-debit.

what's your question? only your employer can tell you why wages were reported for OH. There is reciprocity between these two states so generally your wages should only have been taxed in your home state. 

was that 4/15 Turbotax or the IRS WMR website? Turbotax's date is 21 days after acceptance but can be totally inaccurate. I found that more taxpayer than normal filed close to the due date delaying the processing of refunds. you can use the following to try to speak to an agent (if you can get through). I doubt anything can be done to speed up your refund  Call 800-829-1040 1) Choose your language, 2) Then choose option 2 3) Then 1 4) Then 3 5) Then 2 6) When it asks you to enter your SSN or EIN do nothing – wait - - After it asks twice, you will get another menu 7) Then 2 😎 Then 3 It should then transfer you to an agent.

you have two options 1) one safe harbor requires you to pay in 100% of your 2024 tax liability. It's 110% if your 2024 AGI is $150K or more. 1/4 for each period (see 2) for period and due date)  2) use the 2024 form 2210 annualized income installment method to estimate your periodic liability. it's not really quarterly.  the first 3 periods end 3/31 (due 4/15), 5/31 (due 6/15), and 8/31 (due 9/15). There are also online tax calculators, I cannot say how accurate they are when it actually comes time to file. the AIIM is geared towards paying in 90% of your 2025 tax liability.    either method can result in overpaying your taxes. That's just the way the tax laws work. paying 100% of your 2025 taxes on 1/15/2026 doesn't work because then there can be penalties for the first 3 quarters which may be mitigated by using the AIIM.  state laws may vary.
