State estimated taxes - how on turbotax

[TaxDocMama]

Good Morning. So I finished my tax return and queried turbotax so I could fill out the 2023 estimated tax forms for federal, but I forgot to do this for state. Would my state (CT) return automatically ask me about estimated taxes if I needed to pay them since I do for federal returns (some 1099 income in 2023)? Or do I need to open up my return again and query the system directly to do this? Last year I did it on paper myself, which was super fun. Don’t really want to do that again. ( I do realize my 1st ES tax Payments are due April 18…I scheduled them for federal). 

Thanks all! DocTaxMama
