I want to withdraw my tax application that I filed with turbo tax

[jerry2000]

Submitting the return for filing is just like dropping it into a mailbox - you can not get it back, cancel it, or change it.

Once you submit  and find that you need to make a change, you will have to wait until the IRS either accepts or rejects the return. If the return is rejected by the IRS, then you can make the necessary changes and resubmit it. If the return is accepted, then the only way to change it is to prepare an amended return and file it by mail.

@Maishawn0497 Did you click that big orange button that said “Transmit my return now?”  If you did that, you cannot do anything to fix it yet.  The IRS will begin to accept/reject 2020 returns on Friday, February 12, 2021.  You have to wait for the email that tells you if your return was accepted or rejected.  If you do not see an email, check your spam folder.

You cannot change or add anything on the return that you just e-filed, nor can you stop it.  It is too late, just like when you put an envelope in a US mailbox on the corner.

If you left out a W-2, a 1099G, or a dependent, or a 1099 etc…DO NOT change your return while it is “pending.”  The changes will go nowhere.

Now you have to wait until the IRS either rejects or accepts your return.  If your return is rejected, you will be able to go into your account and make the necessary changes to your tax return and re-submit your return.

 If the IRS accepts your return, however, then you have to wait longer until it has been fully processed and you have received your refund.  THEN you can prepare an amended tax return and mail it in. You have to be able to work from that return exactly the way it was when it was e-filed originally.  You will need to use a form called a 1040X. return.  

 Meanwhile, DO NOT go in and start changing anything on your return in the system, or you will make a mess for yourself.  Sit tight and wait until you see what the IRS does with the return you just e-filed

If you submitted the tax return for filing, as @jerry2000 indicated, it's just like dropping in the mail.  There is no retrieval until and unless the IRS should reject the return for some reason.  IF the return is accepted, then it has been filed at the IRS and only an amendment can be filed to make any changes to the return. The IRS is not officially open for e-file until February 12th, you may know before that date during testing, and definitely that day or the next day whether the return has been accepted or rejected.

If you have not actually submitted and filed the return, use this link to remove your data: Can I delete my tax return in TurboTax Online?
