WILL YOU CLEAR THE STATE TAX INFORMATION THAT I ENTERED SO I CAN FILE FEDERAL TAX INFOMATION

I started to enter information for filing state tax.  I do not wish to file this, so can this information be cleared so I can file federal tax information?

we have no access to your return. under the file tab, there should be a line that says remove state return. this should delete the return but not state data entered through federal forms.  that you would need to delete manually.

another option might be to select mailing for the return. the return will still exist but not be filed.

just delete the state return.  You'll be all set.

 

Go back to where it starts the state return.  It will have the name of your state there and offer to start more state returns if you need them.  To the right of the state return that you created is a little trash can.  Click on that and you're all set.
