tax payments

do i list payments made directly to IRS under estimated payments in turbo tax so my amount due reflects this payment on my final amount due on 1040-v?

Yes if you made estimated payments you need to enter them.  

For 2021 Federal Estimated payments should be on 1040 line 26.

You can type estimates paid in the search box at the top of your return and click Find and it will give you a link to Jump To it.

OR

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 for Home & Business)

Deductions and Credits at top

Then scroll way down to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid

Can I put direct payment to IRS here if paid in 2022 for 2021 tax due? It was paid after an extension to file was submitted.

[VolvoGirl]

Yes I was going to add that.

If your extension payment did not automatically show up on 1040 you need to enter it.  So make sure it's not already there before you enter it!

For 2021 Federal Extension payments should be on schedule 3 line 10. And go to 1040 line 31.

You can type estimates paid in the search box at the top of your return and click Find and it will give you a link to Jump To the screen where you enter Extension Payments.

To enter the amount you paid with an extension (including state extension)  go to

Federal Taxes (or Personal for desktop H&B version)

Deductions and Credits

Then scroll way down to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid

Other Income Taxes - Click the Start or Update button
