It depends, if you haven't filed your return, submitted a payment, deducted the TurboTax fee from your refund, or registered, then you can erase your return and start from scratch in TurboTax Online by following the steps shown here: How do I clear and start over in TurboTax Online?.

 

 

If you filed your return then you will need to see if your return gets accepted or rejected. 

  • If your return has been rejected by the IRS, all you will have to do is make the changes on your return and refile.
  • If your return has been already accepted by the IRS, you will have to file an amended return (1040X) to make changes. But you might want to wait until your refund or payment is processed. The IRS will only accept amended returns via mail.

 

The 1040X form for 2019 hasn't been approved yet by IRS. Please, keep checking the following information below on how to amend your return; it will be updated once the 2019 form is released. Currently, the form is scheduled to be released on 02/20/2020.
