If you need to change your filing status or add/delete dependents in TurboTax Online, you can use the directions below to do so.

To change your filing status in TurboTax Online:

1. Go to "Personal Info" at the top of the page

2. Select "Edit" next to marital status

3. Select you are "Single"

Use the directions below to add or delete dependents.

1. Go to "Personal Info" at the top of the page

2. Select "Add a Dependent" to add a new dependent, or select "Delete" next to a dependent to remove them

NOTE: I included a snapshot of the Personal Info Summary page below.

I filled out qualifying widow with dependent and now I can't change it back to single.
