I'm filing an extension, and I'd like to pay the estimated amount owed for both federal and state (CA). FreeTaxUSA says I can pay for federal through a bank transfer, but it says I need to mail a check for state. Why is that? Is it because I'm filing an extension? If I filed the taxes without an extension, would I be able…
I need to pay the state return to avoid late penalties, and I might as well go through the whole filing process and pay what I owe, too. Can I file and pay for my state return on the FTB site, and file an extension for Federal on FreeTaxUSA, and pay the estimated tax that I owe for Federal as well? What's the best way…
My husband and I got married September 2023 and were living separately in CA/CO until a couple weeks ago. He worked in CO all of 2023 and I worked in CA the whole year. We're trying to file our state taxes for our respective states but are confused about the process. The software allows us to have two states selected in…
While filing for my State Tax return, it requests information about my employer, but I work for two separate companies concurrently and the site is only providing the option of including information for one employer.

There is a difference between what FreeTaxUSA is showing for my state tax owed (Idaho) and what my spreadsheet says. FreeTaxUSA says I owe more for the state by $200+. I cannot find a way to see or print the forms like I can the Federal forms before I actually file. If I choose to file by printing both forms and only print…

I was wondering why I was getting such a big tax refund for my state taxes and after mulling it over - this is after I filed - I looked back and realized that the software never brought over my IRA distributions. There is a form to enter these but the software never filled it in. This means my filing is incorrect. And I…
