Technical Help - data from federal form can't be changed, too late to delete state return?
How do I delete a state return and start over after paying for the state? I paid for the federal and two state returns. There was an error that I fixed on the federal return during the final checks before e-filing. The state return told me about the error in the final checks before e-filing. That error, which made its way into "IT-360.1 TP" of New York's filing, cannot be undone as far as I can tell. I clicked "start over" for New York, but I cannot find that form or how to edit its amounts anywhere. As far as I can tell, TurboTax documentation suggests that some of the data can only be autofilled from the federal form, and that if it can be changed elsewhere, the user must delete the state and start over. So, I'm stuck.
Any advice on how to proceed? TurboTax won't allow me to e-file and suggests that I file by mail. On the PDF to file by mail, it specifically directs that "New York State requires this income tax return to be filed electronically." I'm in a position now wondering if I need to pay a turbotax competitor to finish my NY return.
Thanks for any help!
