Hi, I am completing prior year tax returns (new to Turbotax). In one prior year, I pre-paid a few thousand dollars to the IRS just to be sure, even though I did not expect to owe it any money. Where do I enter this on the Turbotax return?

These payments are estimated taxes.

You can enter estimated taxes you paid by following these steps:

In TurboTax, open your tax return
Click on Federal in the left-hand column, then Deductions & Credits on top of the screen
Scroll down to All tax breaks, locate the section named Estimates and Other Taxes Paid and click Show more
Click on Start next to Estimated Tax Payments
On the next page, click Start next to Federal estimated taxes for 2019 (form 1040ES)
