I made a typo on my taxes, did an amendment and will get a return, so now need to stop payment of back taxes with IRS. Can this be done on turbotax, or just through IRS?

You will need to contact the IRS; they have a special phone number for payment questions:

Cancellations, Errors and Questions:

In the event Treasury causes an incorrect amount of funds to be withdrawn from a bank account, Treasury will return any improperly transferred funds.
Once your return is accepted, information pertaining to your payment, such as account information, payment date, or amount, cannot be changed. If changes are needed, the only option is to cancel the payment and choose another payment method.
Call IRS e-file Payment Services 24/7 at 1-888-353-4537 to inquire about or cancel your payment, but please wait 7 to 10 days after your return was accepted before calling.
