Can anyone help me? My TT Premier 25 will not allow me to enter estimated tax payments for a second state as it has allowed in previous years. Any suggestions?

The worksheets allow for one federal, one state and one local. The local does not work and the second state tax form will not allow direct entry of estimated tax payments.

When you enter state estimates you have to pick the state from the drop down box.  You enter all your state payments on the same screen.  Just keep adding more.

To enter 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

Then scroll way down to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid

Estimates - click the Start or Update button

If you made more than 4 payments - at the bottom is + Add another payment

The Estimated Payment section for state payments allows multiple lines for other payments and any state can be selected from the dropdown, with different dates and amounts.

The same for local estimated tax payments.
