Error in carryover estimated taxes on premier desktop 2021 and 2022

I have an error in the amount of estimated taxes paid on 2021 and 2022 return. When I purchase Premier Desktop to do my 2023 taxes, I will export my 2022 Turbo Desktop file to populate certain figures as I prepare my 2023 taxes. After I do this export, will I be able to manually adjust the 2023 Turbo Tax Premier Desktop file so that it accurately reflects the correct amount of estimated state and federal taxes paid for my 2023 returns ? Thanks.

    You can always edit estimated taxes paid in the TurboTax program.

     

    To enter, edit or delete estimated taxes paid (Federal, State, Local) -

    Click on Federal Taxes (Personal using Home and Business)
    Click on Deductions and Credits
    Click on I'll choose what I work on (if shown)
    Scroll down to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid
    On Estimates, click on the start or update button

    You always have to manually enter the estimates you paid.  Turbo Tax doesn't know the amounts and dates you paid them, even if Turbo Tax prepared them for you last year.   The prior year estimates should not affect the current year return or current estimates.  Except maybe a state 4th quarter estimate paid in Jan.
