I am doing 2024 taxes but I missed an amount owed on 2023 axes so it, plus a penalty was paid in 2024. I don't think it's deductible but I want to be sure.

There are a few states that allow a deduction for federal tax paid. If yours is one of them, you will want to enter the tax paid. Follow these steps:

1. Open to federal deductions and credits
2. Locate estimates and other taxes paid. 
3. Edit/start
4. Locate payment with 2024 federal extension
5. Start
6. Enter federal tax paid- penalties are not included.
7. Done
