The following process will allow you access to change your tax return before 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.
- In TurboTax Online, sign in to your account
- Select Tax Home in the left menu
- Scroll down to Your tax returns & documents
- Select 2021, and then select Add a State (you're not actually adding a state, this just gets you into the right area)
- Select File in the left menu (expand your browser window if you don't see this, or select the menu icon in the top left corner)
- On the Just one more step screen, follow steps 1 and 2 if you haven't already
- Select the Start button to the right of Step 3
- On the Let's get ready to e-file screen, select I want to e-file
- Follow the instructions to e-file your return
This will allow you to file your return through e-file.
