Question

IRS says I owe money from 2018. This is incorrect. Can I refile taxes for 2018? I do not want my tax return for 2019 to be kept by the IRS.

You can always file an amended tax return for 2018.  However, you need to know why you owe taxes for 2018.  The letter you received from the IRS will explain why.  Depending on the reason you may or may not be able to avoid the extra tax.  Without knowing the reason for the additional tax it is not possible to provide a definite answer to your question.  Post more detailed information to this thread for help with your issue.

TurboTax does not receive any information from the IRS or your state after your return was filed, so no one at TurboTax knows about a letter you received from the IRS or the state.
