I printed my 2020 return not realizing that made it uneditable. How do I create a completely new return?

Don't care if I have to pay again.  Need to start over

Please follow these steps to open your return back up as long as you haven't actually filed the return:

 

  1. In TurboTax Online, sign into your account.
  2. Select Tax Home in the left menu.
  3. Scroll down to Your tax returns & documents.
  4. Select Add a State (you're not actually adding a state, this opens the return back up)

 

 

Please see How do I clear and start over in TurboTax Online? for more information.

 

If all this doesn't work, then that you will need to create a new account.
