How can I delete Schedule ARA on my Alabama State Tax Return? It is looking for a LEDO name? and causing my return to not be eligible for e-filing.

 To delete a form in TurboTax:

  • Log in, and choose Tax Tools, then Tools on the left side of your screen.
  • In the Tools Center, choose Delete A Form 
  • In Review Form List, scroll down to your Alabama return, find the ARA worksheet and choose Delete.
  • On the screen Delete Selected Form, select Delete. After the screen Form Successfully Deleted, go back to the forms list, and verify that the form has been deleted. Check your tax return to verify that the result is correct.

See the screenshot below.

The Growing Alabama credit is part of the Alabama Renewal Act in Schedule ARA and is available to taxpayers who made cash contributions to a Local Economic Development Organization (LEDO). If this does not apply to you, delete the ARA form.

 

Choose your method of deletion:

  • Online: A simple way to delete forms in TurboTax online is to use the Tax Tools menu option, which is on your left menu bar when you are working in your program. Then, choose Tools and then Delete a form.
  •  Desktop: If you are working in the download TurboTax program, use the Forms Mode on your menu bar to bring up the form you want to delete, then choose the Delete Form option at the bottom of the form.
