I paid 1040 EST in 2025, is this automatically entered on my 1040 for 2025?

no you need to enter it under Deductions & Credits / Estimates and Other Taxes Paid, in order to get the correct amount due / refund / penalty calculations.

No, the only estimated payment that is automatically included on your tax return is an over-payment that is applied to the following year's estimated tax.  To enter estimated tax payments you made:

• Go to Deductions & Credits
• Scroll down to "Estimates an Other Taxes Paid" (you may need to click on the box with "Get more tax breatks" to expose the additional options)
• Click on the "down arrow" to show options
• Next to "Estimated Tax Payments" click on Start
• Click on Start next to the type of Estimated or other tax you paid
