i wanted to pay portions of estimated taxes that turbotax shows I owe, so if I pay thro the fed or state websites and then turbotax see's the amounts come thro within the program will it apply those amounts within the program when I finish the filing later this year and make the corrections on how much I owe before filing.

If you are filing a 2022 tax return why wait until the end of the year which exposes you to interest owed? The sooner you file and pay the better off you are.

@grandpax5 - I assume your question is about the 2023 tax return.

If you make estimated payments at the Fed or State website, they will not automatically post within the Turbo Tax program. However, Turbo tax will ask you if you made estimated payments and if yes, the amounts and dates of each payment.

Turbotax does not assume you actually made the estimated tax payments it'd calculated. They need to be entered in the estimate section. Also, Turbotax does not make the estimated tax payments calculated, that's your responsibility. You either send in the vouchers with payment or payt through the IRS/state websites
