How to you get TurboTax to enter state taxes paid in the quarter they were withheld.  I only worked and received pay with withholding in Q1.  Yet turbo tax insists on taking my withholding and spreading it across 4 quarters.  In Q2, Q3 and Q4 I paid estimated taxes.  TurboTax insists I underpaid Q1because it is only using 1/4 of my with holding.

    The method you describe lets me enter tax owed.  I need to be able to enter all of my withholding in Q1 when I paid it rather than 25% in each quarter.  The federal forms allow you this and the state instructions (when paper filing) indicates I can enter the tax in the quarter paid.  TurboTax does not let me do that on the State form.

    The online version does not allow entries beyond income for the 4 quarters. The desktop version requires you go into FORMS mode and override those boxes.  How do I switch from TurboTax Online to the TurboTax software?

     

    I made up a return and was able to enter just in the first quarter.
