Did you enter them?  They will be on 1040 line 26 2025 Estimated tax payments and amount applied from 2024 return.  

 

To enter Federal or State Estimated Taxes Paid, including a state estimated payment made in January for the prior year, go to

Federal on left or at top (Personal for Home & Business)

Deductions and Credits

Then scroll way down to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid

Estimates - click the Start or Update button

Federal estimated taxes paid are entered on Form 1040 Line 26

I did NOT enter them! I'm an old man trying to do this alone. I went back just now and amended my 1040-SR to show the payments. I also amended my Colorado non-resident state return, since I earned income from there. And I amended my Arizona resident state return but not sure if I did it properly.

Did you file before you entered them?  If you did you probably don't need to amend federal.  The IRS  would probably add them in for you.   And you should not amend until you get the first refund or pay the tax due.  The the amended return will be for the difference you get back.  

 

If you haven't actually filed yet - you do not amend.  Just  fix it and file the original 1040-SR.

I had already filed, so now amended. I should note that I originally paid the $39 option to TurboTax to have a professional check my forms before submission.  Doesn't seem like that covered much.

Look on pg 2 of Form 1040, line 26. This should be your total estimated tax payments plus any 2024 overpayment that you had applied to 2025.
