You have not officially filed until you submit via e-file or if you chose to mail the return it is placed in the mail. If you need to enter your return follow the instructions below.

Try this work around:

Sign into your account.

 From the My TurboTax menu ( See attachment) Click on Visit My Tax Timeline .

Under SOME THINGS YOU CAN DO click on Add a state. (You are not adding a state to your return.  This allows you to get back into your return.)

Click on the File tab across the top below the Search option.

On the Just one more step screen, follow steps 1 and 2 if you haven't already.

Click the Start button to the right of Step 3.

This will navigate you to the Here are your filing choices screen, click I'd like to change filing methods.

Change your filing method to E-file and click Save.

Click Continue and follow the onscreen prompts to e-file your return.
