Trying to enter my 2025 estimated payments for my state taxes - Vermont

I am trying to enter the 2025 estimated payments I made for my VT taxes but Turbo Tax is not asking for them.  I followed the AI instructions to go the "deductions and credits" for the state return but after going through the questionnaire multiple times, it does not ask me to enter my 2025 estimated payments.  All it does as ask if I want to calculate my 2026 estimated payments.

Your state estimated tax payments will serve as a credit your state tax liability and have to be entered on your tax return.

 

You enter your state estimated tax payments in the Federal section and they will flow through to your state return.

 

In TurboTax Online, you can enter the state estimated taxes you paid by following these steps:

 

  1. Open your tax return
  2. Click on Federal in the left-hand column, then Deductions & Credits 
  3. Locate the section named Estimates and Other Taxes Paid and click on the arrow on the right 
  4. Click on Start next to Estimated Tax Payments
  5. On the next page, click Start next to State estimated taxes for 2025.

Thank you!  These directions are much clearer than what the AI generates.

Instructions above still didn't work for me. What did work was to search for 'ESTIMATED TAXES PAID'. Then it was able to find the right page to enter this data.
