You could download and save your return and then send it to them?

These steps below will help you download your complete return.

Make sure Adobe Reader is installed before proceeding, as you'll need it to view your return. Most computers already come with it, but if yours doesn't, you can download it for free.

Then:

  1. Sign in at https://myturbotax.intuit.com/ with the same login you used when you filed your return.    
  2. Click Taxes near the top left corner of your screen, under the TurboTax logo.
  3. On the My Tax Timeline screen, in the Some things you can do section, click Download/print return (PDF).    
  4. Your return will open in Adobe Reader. Select save.

But don't be tempted to send the resulting unencrypted PDF file via email. Email is insecure. You could burn the file to a CD if your PC has a disk writer, or you could put the file on a USB thumb drive and mail it.

There is an add-on feature in Adobe Reader which allows encryption and password protection of PDF files. This is an extra-cost feature, but it has a free trial, hint, hint.
