I filed taxes last year (2020) with TurboTax Deluxe and needed to file both Colorado and Tennessee state taxes.  When I installed TurboTax 2021 Deluxe it automatically installed both Colorado and Tennessee states.  How do I remove Colorado from TurboTax 2021?

    There is no tax on general income, but Tennessee does impose a state tax on interest and dividend income in excess of $1,250. 

     

    The question still stands:  "How do I remove Colorado from the installed states?"

    No---not for 2021.

    I find the answer I get from Intuit VERY poor.

     

    They tell you how to remove state forms, but do not provide a way to permanently remove a state program from download / updates etc.   This even carries forward to the NEXT year too!

     

    I have seen others suggest very complicated ways to remove AppData files etc. but unwanted states still appear.

     

    Intuit really needs to add a choice to cleanup and permanently remove a state.

     

    The "customer service" is a bunch of 3rd party hired folks who just read a script and cannot do more than that.

    I received the Colorado state software with my current 2022 software package up-date.  I no longer need this state for filing.   How do I delete this package?
