How do I edit my unfiled 2019 1040 Form?

I printed my 2019 tax form, but discovered an error.  I can't find an option to make a change/edit on the form.  My only option is to amend the return, but nothing to amend because the original was never mailed/filed with the IRS.

 

Do I need to open a new Turbotax account and start over?

 

Thanks

When you log back into your TurboTax, click the My TurboTax at the top.  This should take you to the Tax Timeline.  Scroll down until you see the "Add a state" link.  Click that link and you'll be back in the interview section of TurboTax where you can make the changes.

I need to edit the property tax on my federal return. It mistakenly impacts my state return.

You posted your question to a thread that is asking about making changes to a 2019 return.   Are you trying to change a 2019 return that has not ever been filed?   Or are you asking about your 2020 return?

To Edit an error on a Form, Log into your Turbo Tax program and open up your Saved Tax File. Then Select Forms from the top right and search for your Form- then you can Edit entries on the Form itself. After you have made the Correction, be sure to Save your work again. You may also want to re-print your saved pdf to look over before you e-file.
