Yes, you can revoke your consent; Here is what you can do to revoke it.   1. The DIY Method (Intuit Account Manager) This is the fastest way to check your current status and toggle permissions off.   Log in to your Intuit Account Manager. Select Data Privacy from the left-hand menu. Look for a section titled "Data used for Intuit products" or "Personalized experiences." If your consent was recorded, you should see a toggle or a "Revoke" button there. If it says "No consents available," then the "Yes" you clicked may not have been fully processed or saved. 2. The "Double Down" Email (Most Effective) If the website is giving you the runaround or you want a paper trail, you can email Intuit's privacy team directly.   Email: privacy@intuit.com Subject: Revoking Consent for Tax Data Disclosure Message: "I am writing to formally revoke my consent for Intuit to use or disclose my tax return information for any purpose other than the preparation and filing of my [Year] tax return. This includes revoking any Section 7216 consents I may have mistakenly authorized."    

Make sure you enter the 1099-R in the federal section and answer all follow - up questions there.    Where do I enter a 1099-R?   In the state return, you will see the details of the subtractions on the page titled Here's the income the Colorado handles differently.     If you were at least 55 years old at the end of the year, part or all of your income from your pension, annuity, Social Security or IRA accounts that is taxable on your federal tax return may not be taxed by Colorado.   For those 55 years and older, this subtraction applies to those who receive disability payments before minimum retirement age from a plan paid for by an employer. The disability payment must be taxable on your federal tax return and for permanent disability. For people under age 55, this tax break also applies if you receive income as a beneficiary due to the death of the person who earned the pension. Note: Premature distributions do not qualify for this subtraction. The railroad retirement benefits subtraction is allowed on the Subtractions from Income Schedule (Form DR 0104AD) automatically and not here.

Find your business vehicle listed and edit it, or set up a vehicle entry if you have not done so yet. Enter the information requested about your vehicle, including the mileage and you will come to a screen that says You've got a standard mileage deduction of $xxx. You will be asked on that screen if you want to stick with the standard mileage deduction or if you want to see if your actual expenses will give you a better deduction. You can choose which method you want to go with.
