What kind of payments did you make?  How did you make them?   To enter Federal or State Estimated Taxes Paid, including a state estimated payment made in January for the prior year, go to Federal on left or at top (Personal for Home & Business) Deductions and Credits Then scroll way down to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid Estimates - click the Start or Update button If you made more than 4 payments - at the bottom is + Add another payment   For a payment made with an Extension to file go to…. Other Income Taxes - Click the Start or Update button Next page second section Payments with Extension Either Visit All or Click Start or Update by the extension you paid Federal Estimated payments should be on 1040 line 26. Federal Extension payment should be on schedule 3 line 10 which goes to 1040 line 31.

Sorry NO.   You need a computer with Windows 10 or a Mac.     2024 & 2025 Turbo Tax Desktop Download System Requirements. For 2025 next year you will need Windows 11 or later or Mac OS Sonoma 14 or later (newer).  https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/cd-download/tta-system-requirements  

@Lee-K   But in your first post you said......This year I did not withdraw any money from some accounts but the total amount drawn from other accounts was sufficient to cover the total RMD.   Was that wrong and you didn't take 100% of the total RMD?  Read my long post above.  For each 1099R enter the amount from box 1 for the RMD question on that 1099R.  If you know the amount you were short then add it to the RMD question on one of the 1099R forms and Turbo Tax will calculate the penalty for the missing amount on form 5329.  

Look at the "Payments" section of the form 1040, where you have several places to list different ways you paid 2024 taxes. If you paid taxes along with your extension (form 4868) that you probably filed sometime before April 15, then that amount goes onto line 31 -- but they make it confusing, because you need to go to "schedule 3, line 15".  On schedule 3, you will list the amount paid with your extension, and then that will also be what you show on line 31.
