How do I make sure I set up to pay my state taxes?

[vettegirl71]

I e-filed and I cannot figure out how to confirm the account information I set up to pay what I owe.

If your auto debit was setup correctly, no additional actions are needed and sending a check will result in paying twice.

If you set-up a payment for your income tax payment using TurboTax and you did not specify a payment date for the withdrawal, TurboTax's default payment date will be used (the last day of tax season = April 18th this year).

If your payment date has passed, but your tax payment has not been withdrawn yet, payment will not usually be not initiated until the return has been processed.  Most states don't begin processing state returns until after the federal return has completed processing (your payment is still considered timely, as long as submitted before April 18).

You can also call IRS e-file Payment Services anytime at 1-888-353-4537 to verify your payment.

OR                                          

To check the IRS or state payment date selected in TurboTax:

1.     Sign In to TurboTax

2.     Select "Taxes"

3.     Click "My Tax Timeline"

4.     Choose "Some things You can Do"

5.     Select "Download all forms and worksheets"

6.     Review Part V of the Federal Information Worksheet for payment and banking information.

7.     Review State Information Worksheet for payment and banking information.

** If the election checkboxes are marked "NO" and OR your banking information is not displayed on the Information Worksheet, then the direct debit was not successful. To setup payments for federal and state taxes, use the links in this answer and choose from the payment options available. If you did not set up your payment through TurboTax, visit www.irs.gov/Payments and choose from the payment options.

Exactly what I was looking for, thanks!

this did not work for me.  the options listed are not present and all I want to do is see if I setup a payment to the state of ohio.   I spent close to an hour on hold yesterday and I have to say I am not exactly thrilled with this product and esp not with the support.

@vettegirl71  You're welcome. 

@wdcebula You can make a payment through your state. Contact your state Department of Revenue:  https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/3302452

It doesn't give the me the options listed in this message. There is no "My Tax Timeline" and when I did find a download forms it did not help me see if my debit was setup.

You are commenting on an older thread that most likely contains outdated information.  You can find your direct debit information on your TurboTax Electronic Filing Instructions page, Federal Information Worksheet Part V, and the State Information Worksheet, Part VII.

Please follow the below steps to view/print your tax return:

• Sign back into your TurboTax online account 
• Scroll down and click "Add a State"  (This is just a way to get you back into your tax return)
• Next select "Tax Tools" (left column) and then "Print Center"
• Select "Print, save, or preview this year's return"
• Check the boxes for your Federal and State returns (this will open further options)
• Choose to include the government and TurboTax worksheets 
• Then click "View or Print Forms".

We can't make a payment through the state if we may have already paid through TurboTax.  We will have then paid twice potentially.  We just need to be able to see if we set up payment through TurboTax.  Once we file, we can't go back and review any of the payment information for Federal or State.  There is absolutely no confirmation of our payment setup anywhere on the site.  This is a major fail.

If you have not filed the 2022 tax return using the TurboTax online editions, how you selected to pay taxes owed will be in the File section of the program in Step 2.
