Federal tax deductions

[Da20]

When trying to enter my federal taxes paid (1040-ES, property taxes), the entry tables will not load.

estimated taxes go on the tax payments worksheet other taxes go on schedule A taxes worksheet.

Thanks, I can track down and hard entry numbers. Would like to figure out why after spending $65 the program isn’t working. Just did an update this morning and no fix in it.

You can enter your estimated taxes in TurboTax as follows:

1. Go the "Federal" section of TurboTax

2. Click on "Deductions and Credits"

3. Find "Estimates and Other Taxes Paid" 

4. Click on the "Start" or "Update" option to the right of "Estimates"

5. Click on the "Start" or "Update" option to the right of "Federal estimated taxes"

When you DO go into those sections in the interview, if you get a blank page and a rotating circle that never stops...the following works for people who are using MS Windows computers:

.......TTX should only be installed and run as an Administrator.....not in some guest account without administrator privileges...but it's hard to know each person's exact setup.

But even if you did that already, there is an internal setting that sometimes needs to be implemented also.

So...Save your tax file and Exit TurboTax....then:

 1)  right click TurboTax 2019 icon

2)  Select  … Properties

3)  Select the  Compatibility tab

4) In the "Settings" box … check the box to "Run this program as an administrator"

5) Apply...OK...then restart the program and try again
