To help make sure users don’t accidentally delete a return they’re working on, TurboTax prevents users from deleting their most recent “active” return. So, unfortunately, there is no way to delete a return if there is only one return in the account.
You can start over with individual returns. Here are the steps to start a new return in TurboTax:
When you start a new return, you will be able to delete the previous spousal return. Here are the steps to remove the spousal return in TurboTax. Click on “My Returns”, then “View All Tax Returns” on the left side menu to see all your returns. Then click on the small trash can icon to the right of the return that you want to delete.
If you need further assistance or have additional questions, you can contact TurboTax customer support for help.
