According to the Quicken FAQ page, if you have your previous year's TurboTax data file, you should import it into Quicken before you begin using the Tax Planner. Importing TurboTax data gives you a head start in developing your tax estimate and can save you a lot of data entry time.
If the Tax Planner doesn't have any Quicken data or data you entered manually, it uses this TurboTax information to fill in projections so that it can calculate your projected tax. The Tax Planner also projects this information for the current tax year by applying a preset inflation factor.
You can import tax data files with the file extension .TAX. You should import your TurboTax data file for the year immediately preceding the year for which you're planning taxes. For example, if you're planning taxes for tax year 2018, you should import your 2018 TurboTax data file.
Quicken displays a dialog giving you the name of the TurboTax data file you're about to import, the tax year of the data file, and the taxpayer and spouse names in the TurboTax data file.
State estimated tax paid for the current tax year isn't imported. The Tax Planner displays data for this only if you've entered the tax-related transactions in Quicken or if you manually enter this data.
only certain versions have tax planner - Home and Business and Premier
