I have an email receipt from the State of NJ confirming the due date is 17 June 2025. How to fix for NJ-2210 so I don't get charged interest?

@Yago-NJ This is a personal opinion. If it were me I would use the dates provided in the TurboTax program and enter the actual amount that was paid in that month.

When you use dates that are outside the quarter end date being paid, it will cause issues. The dates for estimated tax payments are hard coded in the software for the state program. Based on the information received from the NJ Division of Taxation.

I called Turbotax support. They used the 'Edit / Override' function to allow me to override the incorrect interest calculations and zero out the interest calculations. Now, the "tax-due" number is correct and my statements about when I paid the estimated payments is also correct. This fixed my problem.

New Jersey follows the same dates for an estimated tax payment as the IRS - https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040es.pdf

1st payment ................. April 15, 2026
2nd payment ................ June 15, 2026
3rd payment ................. Sept. 15, 2026
4th payment ................. Jan. 15, 2027

You are not correct with your statements. As I stated in my original post, I have a receipt from NJ Tax officials that states in writing the due dates of 17 June 2025 and 16 September 2025. I paid my estimated taxes on these dates, as these were the dates suggested by the State on their payment system.

So, I return to my original question. How do I override the Turbotax settings for the due dates for NJ estimated tax payments so I can enter my payments and not be charged interest?

@Yago-NJ Go to this state of New Jersey Division of Taxation website and click on When to Make Estimated Payments - https://www.nj.gov/treasury/taxation/njit20.shtml

The dates posted are correct for both the IRS and the state of New Jersey.
