Estimated tax payments are not included in this year's tax return. How do I enter this information?

Enter any federal, state, or local estimated tax payments by entering estimates paid in the search box and using the Jump to link.

Your state and local tax payments are automatically transferred to your state return. We’ll also use them to determine whether you’d benefit from itemized deductions instead of a standard deduction.

You can also use the following step by step instructions see the screenshots below:(

  1. Log onto TurboTax.
  2. Select on the blue Pick up where I left off button.
  3. On the left navigation bar, click on Federal.
  4. Click on the Deductions & Credits tab.
  5. You may need to click on All tax breaks.
  6. Scroll down to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid, click on Show more.
  7. At Estimated Tax Payments, click Start.
  8. Scroll down to enter your Federal estimated taxes for 2018 (Form 1040ES), click Start.
  9. Repeat this for State and Local estimated taxes for 2018.
  10. Continue with the onscreen interview until complete.
