Hello lonnielife!
I do apologize but unfortunately If you have already filed, you cannot cancel a pending return. After you click Transmit Returns Now, your e-file goes to pending status, where it will stay until it's either been accepted or rejected by the government.
Think of pending as "in transit" or "in limbo" – just like you can't cancel a letter that you sent yesterday, you can't cancel a return that's on its way to the government.
To make corrections or changes to your pending return, wait until your return's either been accepted or rejected.
- If your return gets accepted, you will need to amend.
- If your return gets rejected, you will be able to make your changes before you re-submit your return.
Please feel free to comment with any additional questions or difficulties. Best regards and thank you for using TurboTax!
