How do I remove my children from my tax return They are both over 18 and take care of their own taxes?

I’ve tried to remove from the appropriate box but they stay listed I’ve tried to delete but it won’t let me

Click on the Dependent button at the top of the Forms view to open the Dependents window.

Click on their name.

Click the Clear button at the bottom.

Repeat the last 2 steps for each child

When using TurboTax Online or you are in Easy Steps:

 

To remove your dependant's information on your tax return

 

Go to the top right and click on "FIND" type in Dependant and then "GO" You will then see the page where you entered your dependants 

 

"Do you have children or financially support another person? "YES"

 

1- You will need to click on "Remove" beside the name of your dependant(s)

2-Then you will go to the top where it says "Do you have children or financially support another person?" Click on "NO", then continue
