How do I change from filing long form married to short form widowed?

[JohnW15 · Accepted solution]

There's not really a short form for filing your federal taxes, anymore.  With the recent changes to the tax law, you can only file Form 1040, U.S. Individual Income Tax Return, or Form 1040-SR, U.S. Tax Return for Seniors, as your federal return.

TurboTax will choose the correct form for you, based on your interview responses.

For more information, please see the TurboTax Help article “A Guide to Commonly-Used IRS Tax Forms”.
