Form 8879, IRS e-file Signature Authorization is not used with TurboTax.

TurboTax is tax preparation software that assists in completing a self-prepared tax return.  The user of the software initiates the transmission of the tax return.

A lender is requiring a signed copy of my Income Tax return for 2018 or proof that I E-filed my 2018 return.  Not sure how without access to a Form 8879.  

 

Please advise.

Download the PDF of the 2018 tax return.  Included in the PDF is the Postmark Report which has the date/time the tax return was e-filed and the date accepted by the IRS.

 

To access your current or prior year online tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the userID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and on the section Your tax returns & documents click on Show.  Click on the Year and Click on Download/print return (PDF)

I put the wrong bank account number in TurboTax for my 2020 return.  I can not find form 8879 to download and fix it.

@pinkroses1234 If you input the wrong account information, the IRS will issue you a check by mail. Once the return is submitted, the banking information cannot be updated.
