Is a 2015 4th quarter estimated tax paid in January 2016 considered to be a "Balance Due on a 2015 State Tax Return" as descibed in "Other Income Taxes Paid in 2016"?

[Fern · Accepted solution]

No. There is a line "2015 state estimated taxes paid in 2016" that is in the Estimated Tax Payment section. The amount should be reported there.

Only a payment made when you filed your 2015 tax return would be reported on "Balance Due on a 2015 State Tax Return".
