I need to restart my 2016 federal tax form. How can I do that

I had already printed to review and I have since received a 1099C for $233.  I do believe I need to add it as additional income.

If you have not efiled or mailed your return to the IRS, please see the instructions below for opening your return for editing:

  • Sign in to your TurboTax Online account.
  • From the "Welcome home" box on the left, Click on "Visit My Tax Timeline" below the "Download/print" return button.
  • Under SOME THINGS YOU CAN DO click on Add a state. (You are not adding a state to your return.  By choosing this option it will allow us to open up your return.)

  • You should now see the Tax Timeline.


To enter Form  1099-C:

  • On the Tax Timeline, select Federal Taxes.
  • Select Wages & Income.
  • Click "Check for more income" then "Skip to see all income".
  • Scroll down to Less Common Income and click "Show more" to expand the list.
  • Select "Start" next to "Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C
  • Scroll down to "Cancellation of debt (Form 1099-C) or the abandonment and/or acquisition of secured property (Form 1099-A)" and click "Start".
