I e-filed my 2020 Federal return before IRS extended the filing deadline to May 17 so the payment to IRS date was set to 4/15/2021. Is there a way to change the payment date to May 17 in TurboTax 2020?

Not using TurboTax.

To change the payment date you must first cancel the payment.

Go to this IRS website for how to cancel a payment for federal taxes owed - https://www.irs.gov/payments/pay-taxes-by-electronic-funds-withdrawal

Once your return is accepted, information pertaining to your payment, such as account information, payment date, or amount, cannot be changed. If changes are needed, the only option is to cancel the payment and choose another payment method.
Call IRS e-file Payment Services 24/7 at 1-888-353-4537 to inquire about or cancel your payment, but please wait 7 to 10 days after your return was accepted before calling.
Cancellation requests must be received no later than 11:59 p.m. ET two business days prior to the scheduled payment date.

Once the payment has been canceled you can use the IRS payment website for Direct Pay to pay the taxes owed on or before May 17, 2021 - https://www.irs.gov/payments
