tax payment worksheet double counting federal tax payments

[johnba1]

TurboTax Tax Payment Worksheet double counted federal tax payments on line 1 and again on line 6.  TurboTax applied a 2023 tax (refund) over-payment as the first (04/15/24) estimated tax payment on line 1.  TurboTax again applied the same amount as "Overpayments applied to 2024" (line 6).  Thus, (line 8), Totals of line 1 through 7, includes the same entry counted twice.  This error results to an incorrect entry on line 26 on form 1040-SR.

The logical correction seems to be to apply the 2023 over-payment only to line 6 and not line 1 on the work sheet.

This occurred with the latest TurboTax updated version on 3/30/2025.

I discovered this TurboTax glitch after receiving (and investigating) a 2024 return notice from the IRS dated 21 April 2025.

How can I compensate for this error in the TurboTax 2024 file when the information is transferred upon starting the 2025 return next year?
