I itemized, can I go back and use the Standard Deduction to see if I will get a larger refund without losing all the data in my itemized sections?

Follow the directions below to change from itemized deductions to the standard deduction. Doing so will not delete any of your Schedule A entries. 

  1. Log in and click take me to my return (unless already in).
  2. Click Tax Tools from the left-side menu.
  3. Select Tools from the drop-down menu.
  4. Click Topic Search, type Standard Deduction and Exemptions and click Go.
  5. On the next screen, click the box that says "Change my deduction".
