You already e-filed? Nope you cannot start over now.
But--unless you are in a state that requires you to have health insurance (CA, DC, MA, NJ, RI, VT) , you do not enter a 1095C. You only enter a 1095A if you have marketplace health insurance.
Did you click that big orange button that said “Transmit my return now?” If you did that, you cannot do anything to fix it yet. You have to wait for the email that tells you if your return was accepted or rejected.
You cannot change or add anything on the return that you just e-filed, nor can you stop it. It is too late, just like when you put an envelope in a US mailbox on the corner. The IRS does not allow you to take it back.
If you left out a W-2, a 1099G, or a dependent, or a 1099 etc…DO NOT change your return while it is “pending.” The changes will go nowhere.
Now you have to wait until the IRS either rejects or accepts your return. If your return is rejected, you will be able to go into your account and make the necessary changes to your tax return and re-submit your return.
If the IRS accepts your return, however, then you have to wait longer until it has been fully processed and you have received your refund. THEN you can prepare an amended tax return and e-file or mail it in. You have to be able to work from that return exactly the way it was when it was e-filed originally. You will need to use a form called a 1040X.
Meanwhile, DO NOT go in and start changing anything on your return in the system, or you will make a mess for yourself. Sit tight and wait until you see what the IRS does with the return you just e-filed
And....if you already e-filed, the IRS will not begin to accept/reject e-files until January 29.
It's not likely that you need to enter information on your tax return from a Form 1095-C, as the Form 1095-A is usually the one that requires that, as mentioned by @xmasbaby0 . If you do need to correct your return though, you will see an option on your home page when you log into TurboTax to amend your return. It is not currently available this early in the tax filing season, but it will be available in a few weeks. You need to wait until you are certain your return was accepted by the IRS before you prepare an amended return though.
