Unable to print tax returns

I called TurboTax and they said NJ State forms will be ready to print Feb. 13, 2025. And the tax form say the forms are not available for printing.

Yes, if you uncheck to Print your State Return, you'll be able to Print your Federal Return.

 

Here's a link for State Form Availability.

Wow, thank you.  I did what you said and it worked.  Not sure how you were able to figure that out, but thanks so much.  Now, Turbo Tax needs to come up with a fix for this since I see3 a lot of people are having problems printing the way they have for years, including me.

Thanks again.

Can't get it to print your suggested way in TT Deluxe. Just keeps spinning and cannot get to the point where I can just select the federal return.  I did get it to print another way but it was a long process to get it done.

Unable to print tax returns

I have Turbo Tax Premier "Desktop" for Mac and I also am unable to print my return.  If you click on "print return" a popup comes up "printing..." and after a few moments it goes away but not before a "thunk" sound is emitted indicating an error or a popup was denied.  I have both Adobe Acrobat Reader (and Editor).  

 

I also tried to use "File / Preview" which opens a very small popup with the return populated in it.  However, the download button does not work.  It does nothing.  So Preview does not work either.  

 

I've been using Turbo Tax for over 20 years and this is the 1st time I recall having this printing problem.   I'm a software consultant and I believe this to be a bug.  Please help!

Hi I followed workaround instructions from someone and they worked.  There are a number of steps but you need to go to the top bar and select file, then select preview, a window will open and you will select what return(s) you want to preview, also select whether you just want to print the tax return, recommended forms or all forms, click preview, a small window will open up showing your form, hover over the form and you should see a pop up showing the + and - signs for making it bigger or smaller, but you will also see to the right of that a square with what looks like an old fashioned ink bottle in front of it.  Click or double click on the image of the square/ink bottle.  The return will open up in a PDF file and you will be able to print it by selecting from the top bar file, then print and your PDF will print.  Give that a try and it should work.  It is a long workaround, but until they fix the print button in their program it is the only way I can get it to print.  I have printed a number of items that way since I tried it.  Good luck

Thank you that worked for me!

Thank you so much for sharing this very simple tip! After reading through so many possible fixes, that didn't work, I happened upon your post. It worked! Who knew the screen needed to be expanded when it shows no tool indicating this. It looks like a standard pop-up screen. Thank you again!

I have not been able to view or print my returns. 

 

As suggested below, I clicked the File menu, but there is no Preview to click on the screen. Also after clicking the File menu, at the bottom left corner, there was "No Form" shown. Does this indicate that the return itself has not been generated?

 

Appreciate your help!

I'm not sure where to hover the mouse. Can you tell me more?
