How do I select Estimates and Other Taxes Paid. under the deductions & credits tab?

I don't have the Estimates and Other Taxes Paid under my deductions & credits tab

What are you wanting to enter in that category?  Are you wanting to enter estimated tax payments you made toward 2025?  You didn't specifically say, but  I'll go assume that is what you are asking about.

 I'll provide you 2 different methods to get to the right place to enter estimated tax payments you made toward 2025.   If this first one doesn't work for you, then see the second one that I will post in a comment to follow this one.

Here's why you may not be seeing it under Deductions & Credits, since you may have to take an additional step to see the full list of deductions.   See if this works:

When you click in the left column tab for Deductions & Credits, then subtab Deductions & Credits Summary, it may take you to a page called "Your Tax Breaks".   That shows the "Tax Breaks", i.e., deductions, that someone has already worked on this year or that TurboTax is expecting from what was entered last year.   Lower on that same screen should be a button or link for "Add more tax breaks" or "Show more tax breaks" or similar wording.   When clicked, then the screen should expand, and all the deduction topics are displayed including "Estimates and Other Taxes Paid."  Then that topic can be expanded further to get the subtopic Estimated Tax Payments (if that's what you need to enter.)

If you didn't find it that way, see my shortcut navigation in my next comment.

If the above didn't work for you, here's a tool that should get you directly to the estimated tax payments made for 2025, if that's the topic you are hunting for. 

• With the return open, go to the left menu column and click on TAX TOOLS, then the subtab TOOLS.
• In the Tools Center choose the blue button Topic Search.
• In the topic search line enter the phrase estimated tax payments without quotes.
• Make the selection in the list (it may already be highlighted), and either double-click it or click the GO button.
• Next screen is Estimates and Other Income Taxes Paid.
• Use the subtopic Estimated Tax Payments.
• Choose the appropriate category and tax year you are reporting (Federal, state, local) and click START or Revisit.
  
  

NOTE:  Before filing, make sure your Federal estimated tax payments correctly show on the Form 1040, Line 26, and that any state estimated tax payments (if applicable) show up on your state return.
