I accidentally selected "manual" instead of "take a photo". How do I go back to take the photo? The system will not allow it?

How do I change my option of entering my W-2 from "manual" to "take a photo"?

Here's how to take a photo of your W-2 in the TurboTax Mobile App:

  1. Tap the upper-left corner to open the side navigation bar.
  2. Tap Wages & Income (under Federal Taxes)
  3. Select the option to work on your W-2.
  4. Keep swiping until you reach the OK, how would you like to enter your W-2? screen.
  5. Tap Snap a photo of my W-2.
  6. Follow the on screen instructions to optimize the photo
