Did you tell TurboTax you were going to print and mail your return, so now when you log in your return interview is closed? And do you need to know how to open it back up in order to change to efile or correct something first? If so, I'll tell you how below.
NOTE: I'll assume you didn't actually mail the return. If you already physically mailed it, it's too late.
If you haven't actually filed at all, you can open the return interview back up, make any corrections if needed, and change the filing method to efile, if desired.
- Log into your account, and at the Tax Home look for a link "Add a State."
- Click on "Add a State." (That doesn't really add one; that's just to open the return.)
- Once the return interview is open, if needed you can make any changes in your return you need to, if it has not been filed.
- Then go through the REVIEW section to be sure everything is still in order.
- Then go to the FILE section, progress through the screens there, and change the filing method to efile.
- Then continue on answering all the remaining screens and at the final step click a big orange button "Transmit Returns Now."
