Deleting and starting over. ? I had the same problem so I started my
state taxes and then I was able to go back and change all info for fed&state..
(Used premier turbo) GLTU
I filed it and it said it was accepted. So I deleted this TurboTax account to start all over again . Would that losing the tax return refund ? Would it stop irs from accepting my tax return?
If your Federal tax return has been accepted, then it can only by corrected or updated by a subsequent amended tax return.
It sounds like the IRS will be issuing you the refund that you requested.
The steps to start over are as follows:
Click Tax Tools, then Clear and start over at the bottom left of the screen.
You can try clearing and starting over but I don’t think you can if you tried to file.
