Question

I paid estimated taxes in July when I filed my extension, but I can't figure out where I enter the payment now that I want to file my TY19. Where do I enter the payment?

@tracisandoval For Online software users, It is entered when you navigate to the following section:

<Federal <<Deductions&Credits<<<Estimates and Other Taxes Paid<<<<Income Taxes Paid

....then the first item in that final subsection is "Payments with 2019 federal extension"

Did you make an estimated payment or a payment with the extension? They go to different places. I assume you mean an extension payment. Did you use Turbo Tax to file the extension?

If your extension payment did not automatically show up on 1040 Schedule 3 line 10 which goes to 1040 line 18d you need to enter it. So make sure it's not already there before you enter it!

You can type estimates paid in the search box at the top of your return and click Find and it will give you a link to Jump To the screen where you enter Extension Payments.

To enter the amount you paid with an extension (including state extension) go to

Federal Taxes (or Personal for desktop H&B version)

Deductions and Credits

Then scroll way down to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid

Other Income Taxes - Click the Start or Update button

Next page second section Payments with Extension

Either Visit All or Click Start or Update by the extension you paid
