Can I go back in and set up estimated Federal tax payment vouchers for 2020 after filing my return?

Yes.  To prepare estimates for next year you start with your current return, but be careful not to change anything.  If you can't get back into your return, Click on Add a State to let you back into your retun.

 

You can just type W4 in the search box at the top of your return , click on Find. Then Click on Jump To and it will take you to the estimated tax payments section. Say no to changing your W-4 and the next screen will start the estimated taxes section.

yes but realized that you must arrange for the payments to actually be made.  you can send in the vouchers with payment or sign up for IRS Direct Pay. no paperwork needs to be submitted.

To access your current or prior year online tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the userID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

 

When you sign onto your online account and land on the Tax Home web page, scroll down and click on Add a state. 

This will take you back to the 2019 online tax return.  Do Not make any changes to the filed tax return.
