You can find most of this information on your 2016 State tax return. This is the total of all tax you paid to the state in 2016 including

Amounts withheld from your 2016 W-2, 1099 , etc
Estimated tax payments made for 2016
Overpayment (refund) of 2015 state taxes applied to 2016 state taxes
Any other payments made to the state which were considered prepaid tax

The easiest way to get this amount is to look at your 2016 tax return and get all the tax paid in . We can not see your information so I do not know what state you are in to give any more specific directions.

I'm not sure if its the first box I mentioned, or the total of all the others.

Yes all California state tax paid- in and withheld. Just California tax. Look at your California return if you still have it. It will be the amount of all tax paid in.
