I'm a F1 OPT student, I have already e-file my tax using turbotax. I know it's the wrong way. How can I undo it and refile my tax using sprintax?

[cfjgeoffrey]

Is there a way to amend the report as it has already been e-filed?

If you have already filed with TurboTax, you cannot revoke, unfortunately.  You will need to amend to a Form 1040-NR by using Sprintax.  Here are the steps:

-If you are considered as a nonresident, as TurboTax does not support the NR form, you are recommended to use our  affiliated partner, Sprintax  to complete your 1040-NR filing.  

1.  Download the Form 1040-X from IRS website ( see below).  On the front page of Form 1040-X, enter your name, current address, and social security number (SSN) or IRS individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN)

2.  Do not enter any other information on page 1.  

3.  Do not complete Parts I or II on page 2 of Form 1040X.

4.  Enter in Part III the reason why you are filing Form 1040X.

5.  Complete a new or corrected form 1040-NR by using Sprintax, see above.

6.  Across the top of the 1040-NR, write “Amended”

7.  Attach the new or corrected return (Form 1040, Form 1040NR, etc. to the back of Form 1040X

Do I need to pay extra fee for Sprintax?

[TaxGuru]

I would suggest to wait till IRS sends you a letter.

If I already received my return should I wait for the IRS to send me a letter. Also, I paid deluxe turbotax, can I get that back or at least that transferred to sprintax?

[pavanshekar]

Could someone please let us know what they did

[pavanshekar]

Should we re file our entire taxes?

You are responding to a thread from last year. 

Can you be more clear as to what it is you are asking? 

Did you file? 

Do you need to amend?

Are you going to file an amended return using TurboTax?

What to do regarding state tax? Specifically Pennsylvania

SprinTax and J1 Summer Tax Back are pretty similar, I have used them both and got good results even though J1 Summer Tax Back is a bit cheaper.
