How to receive an email confirmation from turbo tax that I filed my taxes through them.

I printed out my tax returns for a program but they need email confirmation from Turbo Tax I used.

If you printed and mailed your tax return, TurboTax would have no way to know that the tax return was filed.

If you e-filed your tax return, the last page of the federal tax return in TurboTax is an Electronic Postmark report. It shows the date and time that you filed, and the date that the return was accepted.

@Brittanymonea   Did you efile your return?   Was it Accepted?  

When you efile you get back 2 emails.  The first email only confirms the transmission.  The second email says if the IRS (or state) Accepted or Rejected your efile.  And check your spam folder for them.

 

When you log into your account you should also see the status and if it was Accepted or Rejected, Started, Printed, Ready to Mail, etc.  What does it say?

 

If you efiled, In the PDF of your TurboTax return, the last page of the federal return should be an "electronic postmark" that shows your name, Social Security number, the date and time that you e-filed the return, and the date that the IRS accepted it.
