this answer did not help me. I am looking for the LONG version about 70 pages long, got the 7 page short version without a problem. I was able to get the long version for 2020 after I filed last year. Thanks
There's not a file by that exact name with the word "LONG" in it. That is likely how you named your full PDF last year for your records. Here's how you can get your full PDF with the worksheets, summary pages, etc., and then you can rename it with the LONG, if desired. You have to open your return interview and go to the Print Center, where you can choose from various PDFs.
Did you efile, and if so, has your return been accepted? If not yet accepted, it's best to wait until it is, then your return PDF should also have the electronic postmark in it. But the following may explain your current issue:
Commonly the PDF available at the Tax Home will not have all the worksheets until later in the year. But here's an alternative way to get the larger PDF by opening the filed return back up to download/print at the Print Center inside the return.
NOTE: When you open your return back up, do not make any changes in it if it's already been filed. If you later have to amend the return, it has to start off exactly as it was when it was originally filed.
- Log in and at the Tax Home or in the section "Your Tax Returns & Documents" for 2021, 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.)"
- The latter has the most pages.
NOTE: Remember all PDF tax documents and tax data files are very sensitive files, since they contain your personal ID info, financial data, and possibly bank account numbers, etc. Be sure to store them safely and securely to guard against computer theft, hacking, etc.
