After you file
Gotcha. I just want to be absolutely certain you didn't e-file, because you don't need the headaches caused by e-filing *and* mailing. It creates a real nightmare that can drag on for months, and sometimes years trying to get it straight with the IRS.
Now my screen shows you're using the CD/Desktop version of TurboTax Basically that you installed on your computer. So all you need to do is click the "Personal Info" tab at the top and just work it through making your changes as desired. Work through the entire "personal info" section until you get to a screen with a DONE button on it. Any changes you make are not always saved until "AFTER" you click that DONE button.
Additionally, since you are military if you are stationed in a state outside of your home state, then so long as your military income is your *ONLY* income, you will never under any circumstances file a state return for the state you are stationed in. You only file a state return for your home state, if your home state actually taxes personal income.
Finally, some states do not tax military income if you are stationed outside of that state. So if your state does tax personal income, let me know what state and I'll be happy to check it out for you to see what (if anything) you need to do to be exempt from taxation by your home state, if you qualify and your state offers that.
