As long as you haven't already mailed your current paper return, you can switch to the e-filing method (through October 15). Please follow these instructions to change from mail to e-file.

Im having the same issue! I can't find the file button, it just asks me why im amending my taxes. I want my money back, this is the worst.

This is the way!

I didn't see any option to select File, and my state doesn't have any taxes, so Turbo tax still had an option to add a state.

If you have that option, choose that and make sure you click File/ Your Info on the side panel that will load for a couple of seconds.

I did that and was able to e-File my return. You can also make edits to your info etc if required.

If you printed your taxes to mail them in and went all the way through the File section, when you sign in to TurboTax Online you'll see the Way to go! You filed your 2021 taxes and you won't see a way to change to e-filing. As long as you haven't already mailed your 2021 paper return, you can switch to the e-filing method (through April 18, 2022). However, some states now require e-filing, which means the federal and state must be e-filed together. Click that link for instructions. @cruskal
