You can delete your state return in TurboTax Online as long as you haven't paid yet.

Note: If your TurboTax navigation looks different from what’s described here, learn more.

  • Open or continue your return.

  • Select State Taxes from Tax Home.

  • On the Status of your state returns screen, select the trashcan icon next to your state, then select Delete.

If you’ve already paid your state fees, you can’t delete your return, but you can start over by selecting Start Over next to your state return on the Status of your state returns screen.
