Is the IRS direct pay only for Federal taxes owed or State taxes as well? I am trying to pay state taxes but i thought IRS direct pay is for all income tax payments

No it is only for federal IRS payments. You have to go to your state's website and see if they take online payments separately. Did you pay both at the IRS?

Well you still have to pay the state. The IRS will eventually see you paid too much and probably send it back to you. Might take a while to get back.

Check the printout or PDF of your return; look for the state cover sheet with the Turbo Tax logo. If you owed tax, it will show the payment information and how/when you decided to pay. Read the state payment instructions carefully since most states cannot be paid from within the TT system and requires additional steps.
