How do I clear my state return in the TurboTax for Windows software?
by TurboTax• Updated 8 months ago
Here's how to clear (delete) a state return in the TurboTax for Windows Desktop software:
- With your return open in TurboTax, switch to Forms Mode by selecting the Forms icon.
- From the File menu, choose Remove State Return. (This won't delete your state program, just the state tax return).
- Select the return you want to delete and select Remove. Choose Yes to confirm.
If you want to start a new state return, select the Step-by-Step icon, and then select the State Taxes tab.
