You should report the state estimated tax in 2022 in the federal section.

  1. Open your Return.
  2. Select Personal tab from the top.
  3. Select Deductions and Credits.
  4. Select I'll choose what I work on .
  5. Scroll down to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid.
  6. Select Start/Update next to Estimates
  7. Select Start/update next to State estimated taxes in 2022
  8. Select the state and enter the amount..

 

You can switch to Forms mode and check The amount entered on Tax Payments worksheet.

Thanks for your help.  I didn't select state after amount entered.  And now it works after state name selected.
