I completed my 2021 federal and state tax returns using TurboTax Premier. I specified that I wanted mailed checks for both the federal and state refunds I have coming. I completed both tax returns but I have NOT yet filed either one. I would like to change my refund option so that my refund for both federal and state is credited toward my 2022 estimated tax payments. I don't see where I do this. I appear to be able to change the refunds from mailed check to direct deposit, but I see no option for applying the refunds to next year's tax. Can someone help? Thanks.

To add, change or delete a current year federal tax refund to next year's taxes before you file your tax return -
Or enter apply federal refund to next year in the Search box located in the upper right of the program screen. Click on Jump to apply federal refund to next year
The amount applied to next years taxes will be shown on Form 1040 Line 36

Perfect. Thanks for the assist.
I had the same problem but my 2022 Turbotax does not recognize the change because the 2021 now reads no refund and 2022 TT says it can't apply it because there was no refund in 2021. Will the IRS fix this? Is there a manual way to enter it?
We'd love to help you complete your tax return, but need more information. Can you please clarify your question?
