If you promise to not change anything in the return you can sneak back in by logging in and scrolling down and clicking on ADD A STATE to open the interview process again... but do NOT make any changes.

Yes but be careful!

If you want to see your actual entries you can go back through it again but be careful not to change anything or you will overwrite and lose your real return.  In fact if you go back through some sections they will reset to the default answers and you need to answer them again.

Click on Add a State to let you back into your return.

From Tax Home (the first screen you see after you sign in), scroll down to Your tax returns & documents. You may have to select Show to open the drop down.

Select 2021, and then select Add a State (you're not actually adding a state, this is just the workaround).

Just to be clear----"accepted" and "approved" are not the same thing.   If you just filed it, you may be waiting for approval for awhile.

First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted:

Once your federal return has been accepted by the IRS, only the IRS has any control.  TurboTax does not receive any updates from the IRS. Your ONLY source of information about your refund now is the IRS.

You need your filing status, your Social Security number and the exact amount  (line 35a of your 2021 Form 1040) of your federal refund to track your Federal refund:

If you chose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your federal refund, that will take some extra time, while the third party bank handles the refund processing.

okay awsome thank you will it mess up my return or is there a chance that by opening it it will get rejected ?

[VolvoGirl]

You already filed and it was Accepted?  Then anything you do in Turbo Tax won't affect the filed return.  It could only mess up your copy in Turbo Tax.  So be sure to save a filed copy pdf to your return before you go looking around.  Save both the pdf and .tax2021 files to your computer.

TurboTax does not provide  a recording of the answers you gave in Step-by-Step.

Always print a copy of your completed tax return for your records, and review it carefully before e-Filing.
You will need it if you are audited by the IRS, or to amend if a TurboTax update changes your return or for any other reason,

AND, to find your AGI next year.
