I finished my taxes and printed them but I want to E file rather than mail the return. How can I do that? Bruce Woodruff. (xxx) xxx-xxxx

To change to efiling, open your return and go to the File section and choose efile in Step 1.

 

To get back into your return after printing or e-filing, please follow these steps:
1. In TurboTax Online, sign into your account.
2. Select Tax Home in the left menu.
3. Scroll down to Your tax returns & documents.
4. Select 2019, and then select Add a State (You're not actually adding a state, this just gets you into the right menu).
5. Once you're in your return you can navigate around as usual.

Always print a copy of your completed tax return for your records, and review it carefully before e-Filing.
You will need it if you are audited by the IRS, or to amend if a TurboTax update changes your return or for any other reason.
AND, to find your AGI next year.

 

Then put the paper away for two days.

Come back and review it again.

Inevitably, you will find some error.

If you haven't mailed it yet. Click on Add a State to let you back into your return.
