Where can I put MCTMT estimated taxes in TurboTax (metropolitan commuter transportation mobility tax)

Hi all,

As a former NYC resident, I had to send estimated taxes for the state, the city and to the MCTMT. TurboTax allows me to enter the state and city taxes but I haven't seen a place so far where I could submit the MCTMT taxes I paid. Please can anyone tell me where I can do that?

Many thanks

In the New York interview in TurboTax, you will have the opportunity to specify that payments to MCTMT were entered in the Federal return that are allocable to New York, but not to transmit estimated payments to MCTMT.

Please see this webpage for information on how to transmit payments to MCTMT online.

The metropolitan commuter transportation mobility tax (MCTMT) is a tax imposed on certain employers and self-employed individuals engaging in business within the metropolitan commuter transportation district (MCTD). This department administers the tax for the Metropolitan Transportation Authority. The MCTD includes the counties of New York (Manhattan), Bronx, Kings (Brooklyn), Queens, Richmond (Staten Island), Rockland, Nassau, Suffolk, Orange, Putnam, Dutchess, and Westchester.

Please see this thread for further discussion on this topic.

Thanks for the response. This is not what I meant though: I know how to transmit payments to MCTMT online, and have done this throughout the year. The question is how do I report these payments through TurboTax: I see an option to report federal, state level and even New York City taxes, but no MCTMT. How can this be done through TurboTax?

Many thanks

Your MCTMT estimated payments are entered through the NY state tax return. Follow these steps:

Look for the section titled 'Take a look at New York Credits and Taxes'.
Scroll down to the New York City and Metro Commuter Taxes section at the bottom of the page.
Click Start or Update beside Metro Commuter Transportation District Self-Employment Income.
As you go through this section, there will be an option to enter the payments that you already made.
