Where do I put my taxes for state they took out of my checks Withholding?

It shows in box 17 of your W-2.  So, you enter it at the W-2 screen in TurboTax.

AFTER, you get your W-2 later this month (or in early February), you will enter all of it's boxes into the W-2 section of the TTX software.

.....along with all of the other boxes on that W-2,  you will enter all of the state information.

............the state involved, the state employer's ID number, the state income, and state tax withholding and entered in boxes 15-to-17 of the software's W-2 worksheet. 

 

All that data will all automatically transfer to the state's tax forms when your state's software is fully enabled.

Are you trying to prepare your tax return before you receive your W-2?   Are you trying to use a pay stub?   Please do not do that.   The W-2 will not really match your pay stub and you will mess up your tax return.   The employer is required to provide your W-2 by the end of January.   WAIT for your W-2 and prepare your tax return correctly.
