Need error corrected

There was a decimal missed in an entry that I went back and fixed, but TurboTax is still using the original entry in its calculations. I know it is incorrect because it is showing a 6 million dollar state refund.

Please correct the calculations that are using the original entry. If this is not possible, then please erase all entries and I will restart from scratch. 
I look forward to your response.

Thank you-

We don't have access to your return, so we can't make any changes to your tax return from here, but we can give you instructions on what you need to do to get it corrected.  This is just a community support site where everyone can ask questions, provide answers and discuss tax topics.  🙂   

 

First off, I need to ask you if you have already filed your tax return and if so what is the status?    Also, you said the state shows the incorrect refund amount, does that mean that your federal return looks okay, no typos there?   And lastly, when you say you fixed it, what screen, federal or state, or where did you fix the decimal point?   Thanks!

 

If you have not filed and you want to clear your return and start over, here are the instructions.
