Note: If your TurboTax navigation looks different from what’s described here, learn more.

You can view your entire return or just your 1040 form before you e-file:

  • Sign in to TurboTax.

  • Open or continue your return by selecting Start or Continue.

  • Select Tax Tools from the menu.

  • With the Tax Tools menu open, you can then:

    • Preview your entire return: Select Print Center and then Print, save or preview this year's return (you may be asked to register or pay first).

    • View only your 1040 form: Select Tools. Next, select View Tax Summary in the pop-up, then Preview my 1040 in the left menu.
