I found the right one, that was completed, but I was trying to work with an older one until now, and I want to delete that one from Turbotax to avoid any confusion. I will also delete from my hard drive.
How can I delete a Return-in-progress that I uploaded but no longer want on there?
I don't think you ever said if you were using Windows or Mac?
You can delete a tax return from within the TurboTax Windows Desktop Program on the very first screen after starting the program or go to File-Open. Click on the large square icon representing the file you wish to delete (avoid clicking the blue "Continue" button). Then just hit your delete key and answer the prompt.
OR Start the program and on the first page click the blue Find A Tax File link at the bottom of the box. Then in the list that pops up you can right click on the file and choose delete.
Or you can delete it from Windows. You can delete the wrong return like any other file on your computer. The tax files end in .tax2021 and should be in your Documents folder and then in a Turbo Tax subfolder. Or search your computer for all .tax or .tax2021 files.
You should also have the Tilde ~ files. Those are temporary files that you normally don't see and normally are deleted. But now Turbo Tax is leaving them in the folder in case something happens like if your file gets corrupted or lost or your computer crashes. Then you can go back.
Oops, sorry, I'm really rusty. I just figured it out. Much easier than I expected.
