How can I change my filing status before submitting my return?

I want to change my filing status. I have completed the Turbo Tax form with all my information but have not submitted the return yet because I want to change my filing status. However, I don't see where I can change my status without having to go through a review of my entire return. I don't want to review my entire return nor do I need to. If I wasn't using Turbo Tax, this is a simple task to change filing status. Am I missing something here with Turbo Tax? Surely there must be the filing status as a stand alone option to check the appropriate box for filing status (single, married, head of household,etc..).Again, I emphasize I don;t want to review any information, I don't need to review any information, already have reviewed it twice. I just want to uncheck the filing status box and check a different filing status box (literally check the box, as in place a check mark in the box, NOT check as in review).

You can change/edit your filing status in My Info. You do not have to re-do the whole return in order to do that. Go to My Info and click edit by your name, and then go back through the screens to answer the questions about yourself in that section.

What are you trying to change to? Are you trying to change whether you can be claimed as someone else's dependent? Or did you choose the wrong answer for whether you were single or married? What are you trying to do?
