I am suspecting the online turbotax didn't saved my input paid amount, but I did see the input amount showed in the html web page UI.(version: Turbotax Online Premium)

Why does my TT account say I still owe tax due?

TT does not update after your return has been accepted. Your account will always show the result of the return you prepared using the software. TurboTax never knows if you received your refund —or how, when or even if you paid tax due. Your proof that you paid your tax will be your own bank/credit card records.

Thank you for your reply.

But saying "TT does not update after your return has been accepted." make no sese. Because I have input the paid amount to the "paid tax" section. And this information should be output to the PDF file(This information is also required by tax return if you have paid tax due in the extension)

The problem now is, looks the turbotax online accepted my input of amount $3372 for paid tax(when you close and reopen web browser, you can see the field has been fulfilled with $3372), but the output file in related form is not reflecting this, which means, when I file the tax return after 4/15, the turbotax software/online will still ask me to pay the due amount(even I have told turbotax I have paid the amount in the extension)

BTW, after input the paid amount(for both Federal Due and State Due), while the Federal Due is still $3372, the State Due become $0 from $1285. This indicating that the Due amount will be changed after input the paid tax amount, but we don't know why federal due showin has an issue while State Due showing correctly.

Replied here to confirm this issue has NOT been resolved.

I believe this is a tech/website issue instead of a tax scope issue.

So you are saying the $3372 paid with extension is not showing up on schedule 3 line 10 which goes to 1040 line 31? Where did you enter it in the program? If your return still shows you owe it on 1040 line 37 then say you will mail a check and the IRS should match your tax due with the payment.

-- correct. Still now showing up on schedule 3 line 10 and said I still owe the the due amount $3372

Where did you enter it in the program?

-- I input here: Tax Home -> Deductions and Credits -> Income Taxes Paid -> Payments with Extension -> Payments with 2024 federal extension(showing the amount $3372 I input to TT HTML form)

If your return still shows you owe it on 1040 line 37 then say you will mail a check and the IRS should match your tax due with the payment.

-- That's the problem here, I already paid $3372 thru TT extension portal. I am not saying TT should know this after I paid in the TT extenstion. But I have input the amount $3372 to Tax Home -> Deductions and Credits -> Income Taxes Paid -> Payments with Extension -> Payments with 2024 federal extension in TT Tax home, but TT still can't generate the schedule 3 correctly
