How do I amend my taxes and also take off a dependent? I was declined

You can delete the dependent in the My Info section of the program.

 

If the return is accepted you will have to amend your original tax return. An amended return, Form 1040-X, can only be printed and mailed to the IRS if the original tax return was not e-filed. The IRS will take up to 20 weeks or longer to process an amended tax return.


Before starting to amend the tax return, wait for the tax refund to be received or the taxes due to be paid and processed by the IRS.


See this TurboTax support FAQ for amending a tax return - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/amend-change-correct-return-a...

If the return was rejected you do NOT amend the return ... you can fix it and resubmit the return.  Log in and return to the MY INFO tab to remove the dependent then continue forward until you complete the FILE tab again.

If you have not filed the 2022 tax return or you filed and it was rejected, click on My Info on the left side of the online program screen.  Click on the Trash Can symbol on the right side of the Edit button to delete the dependent.
