Tax return

Anonymous — Wed, 11 Feb 2026 06:38:10 GMT

Hello, I would like to ask for some help. By mistake I put that I want to mail my tax return, is there any chance that I can change from mail to e-file?

Keep these considerations in mind:

If you've already mailed your return, don't e-file. This can cause problems with the government, including refund delays.
You can only switch from mail to the e-filing method until April 15, 2024.
You must be eligible to e-file.
It's no longer possible to e-file state returns before the federal.

To make the switch, follow the instructions below:

In TurboTax Online, sign in to your account.
Select Tax Home in the left menu.
Scroll down to Your tax returns & documents.
Select 2023, and then select Add a State (you're not actually adding a state, this just gets you into the right area).
Select File in the left menu (expand your browser window if you don't see this, or select the menu icon in the top left corner).
On the Just one more step screen, follow steps 1 and 2 if you haven't already.
Select the Start button to the right of step 3.
On the Let's get ready to e-file screen, select I want to e-file.
Follow the instructions to e-file your return.
