Not sure what you mean by "Do i need to post mark it ?"

You have to sign and date the Form 1040 on page 2 of the form.

Since you have to mail the tax return it would be in your best interest to pay for a tracking service from the US post office so that you know that the tax return was actually received by the IRS.

The postmark on the envelope from the US post office will be used by the IRS for the date it was mailed.

TURBOTAX was supposted to have sent our 2019 return to the IRS.  However, the IRS never got the return.  I do not know WHY?  What I need now is a copy of 2019  form 1099-R for my wife and I.

Send them to our email address of record!  GBRuiz

@gbr2u 

YOU are responsible for filing your own return and making sure it was accepted for processing if you efiled  or  got to the correct office if you mailed it.   So either the return was rejected if efiled and you did not make the correction and resubmit it timely  OR   you did not mail in the return or did not mail it to the correct office.

All you can do now is print, ink sign and mail in the return and attach any forms that have withholding on them.  So if the 1099-R had withholding on it you will need to get a replacement from the issuing company or get an income transcript from the IRS since the TT program only keeps the info from the form but not a copy of the form itself even if you imported it.  Make sure to put some kind of tracking on the envelope and then be prepared to wait for months for the paper return to process ... currently they are taking much longer than 6 months.

@gbr2u No one from the user forum can email copies of your tax return or any other documents to you.   No one has access to your account.    You have to access it yourself.   As stated above, either you did not mail it correctly, or perhaps it was rejected and you did not realize it.   The only way to get that 2019 return filed now is to print it, sign it in ink, and mail it in.  You might need to get new copies of your income documents if you did not save them for your records.   Any income document like a W-2 or 1099R with tax withheld must be attached to the return when you mail it in.

If you are getting a refund there is no penalty for being late.   If you owe tax due, then your interest and penalties began over a year ago.

If you have forgotten how to access your account:

  You have to access your own account and/or  print it for yourself using exactly the same account and user ID that you used when you prepared the return.

Many people have multiple TT accounts and forget how to access them.  Log out of the account you are in now.

When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s.  Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.

Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses.  Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.
