If you started a tax return and said you were "Married" or "Living Common-Law" when you do not have a spouse, you will not be able to move forward in this particular return.
You'll need to get out of that tax return and start a new one in TurboTax. Be sure you do not choose to prepare a return with your spouse, and do not choose your Marital Status to include a spouse if you do not have one.
Here is how you can get to the marital status and change it in the return:
1. Click on My Info on the left-hand side menu.
2. Click on Marital Status.
3. Select "Single" as your marital status and press Continue.
Thank you for choosing Turbo Tax.
When you first log in to TurboTax, it will ask you a few questions to help you get started. It will inquire as to whom you are preparing this return for. You will see myself, my spouse/partner, and someone else. You should choose the Myself option. When you select myself, you will be prompted to provide your information in order to file your tax return.
Thank you for choosing TurboTax.
