If you receive a notice from your state that you owe underpayment interest, it is typically because there was a step in the TurboTax interview in which you were asked if you preferred to have the agency calculate the underpayment interest for you, and that option was selected.
When preparing your returns in TurboTax, be sure to complete the underpayment penalty interviews and, if you prefer to know upfront if there is a penalty and pay it with your return, be alert for a question about having the IRS or state calculate the penalty for you.
If you disagree with the agency's calculation of the underpayment penalty, contact them for an explanation.
