How can the 2018 federal estimated taxes box content be changed

e36auto — Wed, 05 Jun 2019 06:34:39 GMT

When trying to enter my estimated federal tax amounts paid, Turbo Tax Home & Business 2018 (step-by-step method) shows First, Second, Third, and Fourth quarter estimates of $0 without letting me edit these amounts. What should I do?

(The software is up-to-date).

Here's what I think is happening...and how to fix it.

1) In 2017 you added "Supporting Details" to each of those fields...probably to describe when & how paid.

2) The Supporting Details sheets (empty) transferred into your 2018 file.

3) The Supporting Details are supposed to pop up as soon as you attempt to enter a value during the Interview...but it doesn't. (Software Bug)

4) Workarounds (new) :

4a) double-click in the field and the Supporting details sheet pops up and you can either delete it (hit the big red "X"), and now make an entry...or you can use the SuppDetails worksheet to enter your $$....OR...

4b) Put your cursor in the box, and then go to the top menu on the screen and click on <Edit....then <<Add Supporting Details from the drop-down menu. IF the SuppDet box shows up you can either add your entry in there...or hit the Red "X" to delete the whole SupDet worksheet and then make your normal entry.....or...

4c) Put your cursor on the box....switch to Forms Mode....Find the "Tax Payments Worksheet" (if you are not already there) in the Federal section, and enter these payment dates and values directly in the worksheet. You can also delete the Supporting Details sheet entirely (look for the REMOVE "X" when it pops up)..once that is done, you can make entries using the interview again..

(been reported too, but might take weeks to fix...or never since we've heard nothing yet)

One person found that his McAfee was blocking the page display.....if not McAfee, maybe you have your Virus scanner set to it's most aggressive setting.

BUT...Blank page is a different issue from what my long answer above about the "$0" deals with..

Yeah..there is an error report in on that

.....hard to know when it will get fixed..but a software update will be required when it does get fixed. Check on Thurs and Friday mornings........might be part of this one...use the Sign-up. (You may not get the restart..but it's probably the same thing.)
