You may need to delete a few other forms along with it. If it's for "passive activity", you will need to delete Form 8582Form 8582-CR, and Form 8949 too, if none of these are needed.

Passive Activity Forms:

  • Form 6252, Installment Sale Income,
  • Form 8582, Passive Activity Loss Limitations,
  • Form 8582-CR, Passive Activity Credit Limitations
  • Form 8949, Sales and Other Dispositions of Capital Asset

It is so frustrating that your instructions here is not consistent with the turnbox.com at all.
1.  My account is only displayed/showed up in the bottom portion of the whole screen after I logged in. 
2. After clicked My account, there are only 3 items showing up, you can't find "Tax Tools" item at all
3. Only when you click the 2nd item:  View Order Summary under My Account, you would find, suddenly all the other menu items displaying up from the left side of the screen, joining the existing menu times, like Tax Home, documents, etc.

I am an IT guy,  I totally disagreed with such a design.  I even wonder the purpose of such design.   I have been using Turbox tax over 15 years (?).   It is the first time I thought of changing another tax tool provider.

You are responding to a post that is over 5 years old, so the program has likely changed in that time frame.

 

If you need to delete a form using TurboTax Online, see the following help article for instructions:
