My school is asking for a copy of my 1040X for 2019. Is there a way I can access a copy of this through Turbotax?

A 2019 Form 1040-X is the federal amended tax return that you had to complete, print, sign, date and mail to the IRS.  Or could be e-filed to the IRS between late August 2020 thru October 2020.

Did you complete and file a 2019 amended tax return?

To access your current or prior year online tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the User ID 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)

The complete federal and state tax returns for 2019 along with all worksheets and information only pages will not be available in the PDF download until the online editions for tax year 2020 become available in early December.

This occurs each tax year after the prior year online editions shut down at the end of October.  It is always a good idea to download a PDF of your tax return after it has been accepted by the IRS along with the tax data file (.tax)

If you used the desktop CD/Download editions installed on your computer, the only copy of your tax data file and any PDF's will be on the computer where the return was created.  TurboTax does not store online any returns completed using the desktop editions.

A 1040X is an amended tax return.  Did you amend and mail the amended 1040X to the IRS?

Hello, 

Yes, I did. I was sure I kept a copy of the 1040X I mailed to the IRS, but I can find it anywhere. I was hoping I could pull a copy from Turbotax.

If you used TurboTax to complete the amended tax return then use the procedure provided to download a PDF of the online tax return. 

Or if you used the desktop editions just start the program and continue the 2019 return.  Go to the File section and click on Print to get a copy.
