Federal Taxes (or Personal for desktop H&B version)

Deductions and Credits

Then scroll way down to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid

Other Income Taxes - Click the Start or Update button

 

Next page second section Payments with Extension

Click on I'll choose what I work on (if shown)
Scroll down to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid

If you did already file with the incorrect amount, wait until the IRS finishes processing your tax return and you get the refund (if any). The IRS might correct the payment amount for you, since they know how much you paid. If they don't correct it, you will have to file an amended return to make the correction.
