Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

I've gone through file and selected mail. I want to change to efile. There is an article that says you can do it but it doesn't say how.

Thank you for your reply however the document says 'when you sign in to TurboTax Online you'll see the Way to go! You filed your 2021 taxes and you won't see a way to change to e-filing. As long as you haven't already mailed your 2021 paper return, you can switch to the e-filing method'.  It doesn't say how or where you can change the method.

When you sign onto your online account and the page you land on says Way to go! You filed your 2021 taxes then follow this procedure to change from mail to e-file

  1. In TurboTax Online, sign in to your account
  2. Select Tax Home in the left menu
  3. Scroll down to Your tax returns & documents
  4. Select 2021, and then select Add a State (you're not actually adding a state, this just gets you into the right area)
  5. Select File in the left menu (expand your browser window if you don't see this, or select the menu icon in the top left corner)
  6. On the Just one more step screen, follow steps 1 and 2 if you haven't already
  7. Select the Start button to the right of Step 3
  8. On the Let's get ready to e-file screen, select I want to e-file
  9. Follow the instructions to e-file your return

Thank you so much for your reply.  That worked.
