Solved
This is our first year with a household employee. In the "Uncommon Tax Situations" I used the "Nanny and Household Employee Tax" thread to fill in our Schedule H information about what we paid our Nanny and the related employer taxes due. However, we have paid these as we go through our payroll provider so there shouldn't be any net new tax liability from this. I can't figure out where to enter the taxes paid in Turbotax. Since TT dosen't have that information, it is calculating our tax liability as if we didn't pay any of this already, which is materially inflating our tax liability incorrectly.
Does anyone know how to tell turbotax what we already paid so it can properly calculate our liability? If we already paid this, should we just not be filling out a Schedule H at all?
You would enter these payments as estimated tax payments.
1. Log into your TurboTax account. On the Tax Home screen, choose Deductions & Credits and click Review/Edit or Pick up where you left off.
2. Scroll to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid and choose Start next to Estimated Tax Payments.
3. On the next screen, choose Start next to Federal estimated taxes for 2024 (Form 1040-ES).
4. Choose yes, and then enter the payments you made and the corresponding dates.
