Yes you can!

You don't have to but you can if you want to.

There is no record of your rejected return with the IRS.

How?

You will need to go back to My Info.

To get back in, go to add a state or amend.  You will not do either of these, this is only a way back in to work on it. This keeps people from accidentally changing their return without doing it on purpose.

You can try clearing and starting over but I don’t think you can if you tried to file.  Did you pay any fees?  If you are in the Free Edition and haven’t paid and can’t start over you could leave this account and abandon it then start a brand new account.  You can use the same email address for 5 accounts.   How to start another return in the Online version      <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/3288574">https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/3288574</a>

Yes you can. You would start by clicking on "Fix My Return" to get to the options to clear your return and start over from scratch. See our FAQ on how you can Clear and start over.

Can I refile my taxes. I'm a widow and my husband pass away in 2014 so should I file married or single?

I am not sure why you would need to "refile".

 

If your husband passed in 2014, then for tax year 2019, you would file as single.

 

If you made a typo and your husband passed in 2019, then you would file tax year 2019 as "Married Filing Jointly".

 

Please accept our condolences for your loss.

If you have submitted payment, deducted the TurboTax fee from your refund, or registered, you cannot erase your return and start from scratch in TurboTax Online.

Using the TurboTax online editions for tax year 2021 and you are accessing the online tax return, My Info is located on the left side of the online program screen.
