If you don't see the whole menu of items...

...then look for the text below the area where your current entries are located.

 

...click on text that says something like "Add more tax breaks"......that should get the entire menu to show up and has the Estimated Taxes section.

Your estimated tax payments will serve as a credit against your Federal tax liability and have to be entered on your tax return.

 

In TurboTax Online, you can enter estimated taxes you paid by following these steps:

  1. Open your tax return
  2. Click on Federal in the left-hand column, then Deductions & Credits
  3. Navigate to the list of Deductions and Credits 
  4. Locate the section named Estimates and Other Taxes Paid and click on the arrow on the right 
  5. Click on Start next to Estimated Tax Payments
  6. On the next page, click Start next to Federal estimated taxes for 2025 (form 1040ES)
