I am retired and use an estimated tax for each quarter to pay my annual Virginia income taxes. Where do I enter those tax payments on the TurboTax forms? Thanks

Estimated tax payments, where are they entered on the Turbo Tax forms?

[VolvoGirl]

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

You enter state estimated payments under the federal side (because they can be a federal itemized Deduction). THEN after you finish filling out the estimates under Federal you need to click on the State Tab at the top and start the state return over for it to update.
