How do we pay state income tax on a large 401k withdrawal so that we do not incur a penalty next year?

We took a very large sum out of a retirement account. They withheld 20% for federal income taxes. How do we pay state income tax so there will not be a penalty for a large amount due on 4-15-20? And how do we know the amount?

You just need to make an estimated tax payment to Indiana. It's basically the amount of the distribution multiplied by 3.23% (Indiana tax rate).

Here's the link to the estimated tax form.

Which spouse took it out? Were they under 591/2? Or stopped working at that job? If you are under 59 1/2 there is a 10% Early Withdrawal Penalty. By the way you can replace it within 60 days and avoid the tax.
