Enter state, city, and school district estimated tax payments (1040)

Enter state, city, and/or school district estimated tax payments a taxpayer made during the current tax year on the federal StPmt screen in the Payments folder. Entering these payments on the federal screen allows them to calculate on Schedule A. If the taxpayer made any additional payments after the original due date of the return, do not enter them on the StPmt screen. Instead, enter them in Payments folder in the state return. Use the
Additional payment
field on the applicable state's Ext screen.
note
Schedule A does not use any payments made after the end of the taxable year when calculating the deduction. Those payments proforma to the federal A screen as 2021 Estimates Paid in 2022.
The StPmt screen is a multi-unit screen, so you can enter estimate payments for an unlimited number of states, cities, and school districts. On one screen, you can enter payments for one state and up to four city returns. If you have multiple screens for one state, make sure you use the same fields for each unit. For example, if you use the
Total
field in one unit, use the
Total
field for all units that pertain to that specific state. Similarly, if you use the
1st-5th
payment fields, enter amounts in those fields for other units.
