Get your taxes done using TurboTax
@Arthur Williams wrote:How do I change
You didn't say what you wanted to change, but based on the title of this thread, I'll assume you haven't yet filed and want to change from filing by mail to efiling.
Did you tell TurboTax you were going to print and mail your return, and now when you log in, your return interview is closed, and you need to know how to open it back up in order to change to efile?
NOTE: I'll assume you didn't actually physically 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.
- Log into your account, and at the Tax Home or in the section "Your Tax Returns & Documents" for 2021, 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 is open you should have a full left column menu. As long as you haven't yet filed, if needed you can make any changes in your return you need to.
- Then go through the REVIEW section to be sure everything is still in order.
- Then go to the FILE section, go 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."
