Payment Received - Missing Tax Return

Guys, 

 

I received a mail from California Franchise Tax Board for my LLC stating that they have received my $800 payment for my entity id for the tax year 2020 but they could not locate a tax return for the same year. 

 

This was the year I used TurboTax all by myself for the first time, prior to this year I used to go CPA for my taxes. I was under the assumption that TurboTax will file everything for me, perhaps I am missing something?

    You need to go back in to your TurboTax account and check the 2020 return to make sure that it was actually filed and not either rejected or completed and not sent.  You have to get all of the way to the end and send the electronic file.  In some cases the software can't file the return electronically and will tell you that you need to file by mail.  

     

    Either way, log in to the TurboTax account that you used originally and then check on the status of that return.  That'll give you more information to work with.

    Thank you @RobertB4444 

     

    I did check the eFile status of 2020, and it says, Federal accepted and State accepted. I see my LLC info and Schedule C filled in, Form 8995 filled in, and Form 8453-LLC generated with no data, and I do not see Form 568 at all. 

     

    I did receive emails stating that Federal and State have accepted the returns. 

     

    What are my options now? is there a way I can go back to the 2020 filing and somehow ask TurboTax to generate Form 568 (as it already has all my data)? 

     

    I am noticing a similar thing in the 2121 filing as well, for some reason TurboTax did not generate these forms and did not file them, I took the best available TurboTax online subscription!!

    You can amend your 2020 return to add the form and submit it to California and take care of the 2020 problem.  You may want to do that for 2021 as well.
