I’ve paid my taxes already but it’s still saying I owe money. Is anyone else having this problem too? How long before it clears out?

What is "it"? TurboTax has no way of knowing that you paid the tax that you owed. It will always show the amount that you owed when you filed your tax return. The amount owed does not get updated in TurboTax when you pay it.

That’s what I was wondering does the amount clear out. I didn’t want the IRS coming after me although I paid my taxes already. But thank you for your answer.

TurboTax will say you have taxes due if when you complete your tax return, you owe taxes. Even after your pay those taxes, TurboTax will still say you have taxes due, that will never change.

 

To verify that you have paid your taxes, you need to look on your bank or credit card statement where you paid your taxes and see that the money has been taken out of your account.
