Yes, unless it's been past three years. They have five years to eat you alive though. For the previous year -as below...from the previous year (as in made then) - even if applicable, no, only in the year they are paid. File an amended. State Tax payments are deductible from Federal, when paid. Federal Tax Payments aren't deductible from State, or from Federal for that matter, regardless of when they are paid.
