How do I change language preference? for some reason it check marked some other language instead of English

@jwrudolph3 

 

You will find that entry at the bottom of the Personal Info section on the first page. You may need to edit every section until it appears.

 

Also, if it's already in Spanish, please view the screenshot posted above by DaraLO and see if that helps you to get it changed. If not, please respond back here and let us know.

I was in TurboTax doing my taxes and the language switched to Spanish, how do I get back to English.

My email add is [email address removed] and phone # [phone number removed].

How can I change the TurboTax language from English to French to complete 1 return.

I would need to change it back to English afterwards.

Thanks

In a previous year, I somehow identified my language preference as French. I'm soon completing my 2024 return and don't want to make an error...where do I identify my language of preference?

Are you asking about what language TurboTax is in, or what language the IRS will communicate with you in?

 

The answers above address the TurboTax language. If you want to change the language that the IRS communicates with you in, go back to Personal Info and edit the information about yourself. On a screen "Do any of these apply to [name]?", look closely, because there should be a check box for "Would like to change the language used by the IRS..."
