I almost finished return but need to file extension. I click jump to file extension (Windows takes me to beginning. NO option for extension like if new return. Help!?

When try to file extension (Windows version), Help screen says to "jump to...", but link doesn't go anywhere. How do I get to file extension page if return already started?

You can find the area to file an extension with Tax tools.

Select Tax Tools

This is on the left sidebar
You may have to minimize the Federal and State options
You also may have to scroll down on that menu

Once you can work on Tax Tools
On the drop-down select Tools
There will be 3 or 4 green boxes
Select Topics Search
Type extension
