I need a copy of my 2020 tax return with the TurboTax header on it (as proof that I prepared my taxes through TurboTax). Does anyone know how to access this?

[GeorgeDenseff]

There is no way to do that.  To whom do you need to give proof that you used TurboTax?  Your receipt for your payment to TurboTax will show that you paid for the software.  The emails that you received if you e-filed are also proof that you used the software.

There will a cover letter that says Turbo Tax.  Download the full pdf with all the forms and worksheets.

Here's an alternate way to print by opening the filed return back up to print at the Print Center, where you can also get the worksheets.

Log in and at the Tax Home or in the section Your Tax Returns & Documents for 2020, look for a link Add a State.  Click on Add a State.  (you don't really add one.  That's just to open your return back up.)

After the return is open, click in the left menu column on TAX TOOLS, then PRINT CENTER.

Then choose Print, save, view this year's return.

The next screen should offer some options:  Just my tax returns or include government worksheets (optional), or include government and TurboTax worksheets (optional.)

But realize that Turbo Tax is a self prepared return.  Only you sign it.   What do you need it for?  Just preparing it with Turbo Tax doesn't mean you filed it.

When you e-file your federal return you will receive two emails from TurboTax.  The first one will say that your return was submitted.  The second email will tell you if your federal return was accepted or rejected.  If you e-filed a state return, there will be a third email to tell you if the state accepted or rejected your state return.

Your return's electronic filing status history records all e-filing activity related to the return, including the Electronic Postmark. You can print it out if needed.

This is exactly what I needed, thank you. Working with a financial institution that does not accept self-filed taxes unless they were completed with TurboTax.

Did the IRS ask you to send another one?  Or is the website saying Not Found?

How to Access prior year online returns

If you can't get the side menus to open up to access the prior year..... You need to start entering some basic Personal Info in 2021 for the side menu to open up. Just continue a little ways into 2021.
