If your return has not been filed AND accepted by the IRS, then you can change how you file. To do so:
- Log into your online account; click on Take Me to My Return if it doesn't come up automatically
- *If you are at a point where you can no longer click on Take Me to My Return, scroll down to the section, Some Things You Can Do. Click on Add a State (you won't really be adding a state but doing so will allow you to get back into your return).
- Once you are back into your return, click on the File tab. You'll see a screen with Steps 1-3.
- Click Revisit/Start next to Step 3 to change your filing option (you
may also want to go through Step 1-2 to make sure your information is
correct. Once your return is submitted & accepted, you won't be able
to make any changes)
- Here at Step 3, you'll be able to change your filing
option to File By Mail. You'll be prompted with instructions on how to
print and mail in your return.
