You can get back into your return using the steps here below.

  • Log into your TurboTax account and click My TurboTax at the top
  • You should be on the Tax Timeline now
  • Scroll down to SOME THINGS YOU CAN DO section
  • Click Add a state (not really adding one, just a way to get back into return
  • Once inside the return, click Personal Info tab and then Edit next to your name (or name of person that needs correction) on that screen and correct social there.
  • Then go back to File tab and go through to resubmit the return. 
    • NOTE: Do not select "Fix my return" here (you've already done that).
