How do I add 2022 prior estimated state tax payments to my e-filed return

I just realized I paid $252 in April 2022 toward my estimated MA State Taxes. I did not see where this could be entered in federal or state forms. Although it may not make a difference in my refund, I would like to get it straight and hope it adds the $252 to my actual refund. The filing was electronic on 3-2-2023.

State estimated payments are entered in the federal section of TT.

In TurboTax (TT), enter at:

Federal Taxes Tab (Personal for H&B version)

Deductions & Credits

-Scroll down to:

--Estimates & other taxes paid

   -Estimates

 

It should increase you refund.  You cannot file an amended return until your original filing has been fully processed (you get your refund).  There's even a possibility that the state may add  that amount to your refund.

This now makes sense. Thanks for the reply as I would not have found it on my own!
