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
