Can't edit form.

I am using the desktop 2025 version of TurboTax. I was not asked about 3rd party designee, so I went to the 1040 form to edit it directly. The form can not be edited. I can't do anything to the 1040 form directly or any other form for that matter. Please tell me how to change the 3rd party designee.

I have not filed yet. I have progressed only to Smart Check.

People have made previous posts, but they are old.

In the desktop version of TT go to top of page choose VIEW> choose Forms>Under Federal section, choose Info Wks> about half way down the page Part VI is Third Party Designee and you can edit it.

For state choose VIEW> choose Forms>Under your state section, choose Info Worksheet and under section XII should be the ability to change the designee.
