Can you see your tax forms before you file? I already paid, but I can’t seem to find my forms just to look at them for myself.

Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the online program screen.  Then click on Print Center.  Then click on Print, save or preview this year's return.  Choose the option Include government and TurboTax worksheets

Yes, absolutely you can and should look at your tax return before your submit it.

 

There are two ways to do that. Since you have already paid, printing or previewing it through the Print Center is the best choice.

 

Here's how to do that:

 

 

  1. Open your return.
  2. Select Tax Tools from the left-side menu, then Print Center.
  3. Select Print, save or preview this year's return at the bottom of the screen. 
  4. Follow the prompts to print or save a copy of the return. 
     

You can also preview the return before you pay, but you won't see every form, just the 1040 and Schedules 1, 2 and 3:

 

 

  1. Open your return.
  2. Select Tax Tools from the left-side menu, then Tools.
  3. Select View Tax Summary in the pop up box.
  4. Select Preview my 1040 from the left-side menu.
  5. You will see the Form 1040 with Schedules 1, 2 and 3.
  6. When you are done, select Back from the left-side menu.
