Tax payment made during 2020

[Jan Hughes]

I made a one payment to MN Dept of Revenue during 2020.  I do not see anywhere to enter that payment on the Turbo tax program.   Where do I indicate the $1000 paid during the tax year.

Was it for a 2019 tax due or an estimated payment for 2020?

To enter Federal or State Estimated Taxes Paid, including a state estimated payment made in January for the prior year, go to

Federal on left or at top. Personal (Home & Business)

Deductions and Credits at top

Then scroll way down to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid

Estimated Taxes - click the Start or Update button

You enter state estimated payments under the federal side (because they can be a federal itemized Deduction). THEN after you finish filling out the estimates under Federal you need to click on the State Tab at the top and start the state return over for it to update.

You have to pick the right state from the drop down box and enter the right payment dates.
