The description of my K-1 box 11B is "Taxes portion of Excess Deductions on Termination". Where do i enter that information?

If this K-1 came from an estate or trust, the amount from Form 1041 Schedule K-1 Box 11 Code B refers to state and local taxes that must be manually entered on the related tax form.

Log into TurboTax and open your return.
Go to Federal >> Deductions & Credits >> Estimates and Other Taxes Paid >> Other Income Taxes >> Withholding not already entered on a W-2 or 1099.
Choose a state from the State withholdings drop-down and enter the amount from Box 11 Code B.

Your entries will report the amount on Schedule A Line 5a.

This was a easy-to-understand, concise answer. Thank you! I had an estate K-1 with $1,300 in 11b, explained as 'Excess Deductions, Real Estate Taxes'. The amount does not impact my Federal Return, but does passthrough to my State (NJ) return. It shows up as 'Total NJ Income Tax Withheld'.

Should I be concerned as it is not actually withheld from any W-2 or 1099 of mine, but passed on through the Estate's K-1?

Not always, but it’s important to check the “Withholding” label. If the $1,300 was state Income Tax paid by the estate for you, then it belongs under “Withholding.” But since your K-1 lists it as “Excess Deductions, Real Estate Taxes,” it’s likely being recorded as Income Tax Withheld when it should be a deduction instead.

Correcting the Entry: If you determine it is a deduction and not a payment of tax:

Remove it from the "Withholding" section in TurboTax.
Enter it strictly within the K-1 entry screens. TurboTax should ask about "Final Year Deductions" or "Box 11" specifically.
Note that NJ is notoriously "decoupled" from federal deductions; if it disappears from your NJ return after you move it out of withholding, that is likely the legally correct (though less favorable) result.
