We continue to maintain our position as previously stated. However, if you wish to override the $800 franchise tax, you can do so using the TurboTax desktop version. TurboTax desktop allows a taxpayer to view their tax forms and, in the case of the $800 franchise tax, override such amount by right clicking on the tax amount, selecting the Override option, and then changing the $800 franchise tax amount to 0. You can view all your tax forms by clicking on Forms in the upper right corner of the application.
Please bear in mind that when taxpayers change amounts on their forms, they negate the audit guarantee. The audit guarantee remains in effect only when taxpayers prepare their returns in the Step-by-Step mode.
TurboTax online does not have the same option as TurboTax desktop with regard to viewing forms and editing in forms mode. Included below is a link to a TurboTax article explaining how a taxpayer can move from TurboTax online to TurboTax desktop.
