How the heck do i manually change what i want my 2024 estimated taxes to be.. I cannot find it anywhere. I see where i can adjust the payments i made last year, but i cannot seem to modify that turbo tax wants to pay this year in estimated payments. I want to change both my Federal and State to higher amounts.

Yeah, it got me too. Go to Federal Taxes, click on Other Tax Situations. Go down to Other Tax Forms. Click on start. It looks like you are doing a regular W-4. just keep going. Good luck.

Switch to Forms mode and open the Estimated Tax Payments Options sheet. You can even select to print the estimates with just your personal info and no amounts. You can play with and tweak the amounts. You can open the individual 1040ES forms and override the amounts.

You can print them with the amount you want in the Desktop program. I used to. But now I use the preprinted forms the IRS sends me each year and write the amount on it. Then they fit in the envelopes the IRS sends with them. Much easier. Or you can just pay the IRS directly online. No forms involved. And you don't have to cut them.

Same for state. Find the estimates in the state forms.

Paying directly to IRS (and State) makes sense, just turbotax uses it's calculated payments the following year so can those be adjusted too?

Yes. You do not have to pay the amount that is on the voucher. These vouchers have an estimated amount on them. The actual amount will change if your income is more or less. When you submit your payment to the IRS or state directly, it can be any amount.
