Hello, I entered an estimated tax payment on my 2024 NY State Taxes of $1249 but the NY Summary and tax return says $1550.

I entered in the data for state estimated tax payments in the federal credits and deduction section.

    @KrisD15 Thanks, I meant what lines are you referring to on the tax return that equal $301. I didn't import anything from quickbooks.


    The entries show on my side as imported from QuickBooks. I know you said you did not import QuickBooks, but had you last year? Perhaps that carried over to this year. 

     

    The estimated payments are not listed on your state return. The payments are listed on the MCTMT worksheet. The total tax paid is on IT-203 line 66.

     

    When you open the NY state return section, you should see "You Just Finished Your New York Return"

    Click UPDATE for "Credit and Other Taxes"

    The program may ask about the START credit, continue

    Scroll down to "Metropolitan Commuter Transportation Mobility Tax"

    Continue to the "Your MCTMT Payments"

    Do you want to work on the MCTMT?   YES

    Allocate the income on the next screen, but I don't think it will matter since your income is below the threshold

    Continue to the "Your MCTMT Payments" screen

    Your return shows the four payments all dated 2/15/2025

    If they were not made, please delete or edit them on this screen

     

    No estimated MCTMT payments results in a NY refund of 1,002 which is 301 less than the 1,303 it started at.

    To clarify, did you perhaps have a 2023 state refund of 301 applied to 2024? 

    Did you have 301 state withholding? 

    Any reason you sent an odd number of 1249 as an estimated payment?

    @KrisD15 Thank you.

     

    1. No state refund applied from 2023
    2. No tax state tax withholding, all NY income is 1099
    3. The $1249 is a the exact payment amount I made to NY State as an estimated payment for the 1st quarter of 2024  

    I'm stumped, I don't know where the extra 301 is coming from.

    Are you using TurboTax Desktop or Online? 

     

    Can you return and look at the Estimated Tax Payment Summary?

     

    Federal

    Deductions & Credits

    Estimates and Other Taxes Paid

    Estimates    UPDATE or Start 

    State estimated taxes for 2024    UPDATE or Start

     

    Is the 1,249 listed for the first quarter payment?

    Click CONTINUE

    Does 1,249 show on the "Here's what you paid in state estimated taxes" screen?
