You have paid state estimated taxes and have to enter your payment(s) on your tax return.

You can enter the estimated taxes you paid by following these steps:

• In TurboTax, open your tax return
• Click on Federal in the left-hand column, then Deductions & Credits on top of the screen
• Scroll down to All tax breaks, locate the section named Estimates and Other Taxes Paid and click Show more
• Click on Start next to Estimated Tax Payments
• On the next page, click Start next to State estimated taxes for 2018 (see attached screenshot)
