Can I erase a payment method after clicking continue on the schedule your federal taxes?

I entered a payment method for my federal tax "schedule a payment" section, and clicked continue onto the state tax "schedule a payment". But have since decided to consult a tax specialist in person before paying my taxes. How can I be sure my federal taxes arent taken out of the payment method I selected, because I try to refresh and the info is still imputed, and turbotax won't let me clear and start over because I've paid for a turbotax upgrade.

If you do not file your tax return then noting is sent to the IRS and nothing will be paid for the taxes owed.

In the File section of the program on Step 2 you should be able to change your method of payment for the taxes owed.

Click on File and then click on Revisit for Step 1 and continue to Step 2.

 

You complete your tax return by finishing all 3 Steps in the File section. In Step 3, to e-file your tax return, you must click on the large Orange button labeled "

Transmit my returns now

".

 

After completing the File section and e-filing your tax return you will receive two emails from TurboTax. The first email when your tax return was transmitted and the second email when the tax return has either been accepted or rejected.
