Why can't I download my 2021 Federal Tax return? It has already been accepted and I already got my refund.

I filed my taxes weeks ago and it still says it is in preview only.

Please see this Turbo Tax help article on Why can't I print out my forms?

I'm sorry, but this is article is not helpful. As I stated in my question, TurboTax already submitted my return electronically, and gave me no indication that any form was not final.

This is not helpful. I have received confirmation that the IRS has accepted my forms. TurboTax is still telling me to wait until the end of January (2 months ago) in the download section and will only let me see the preview. This is a bug in your software, not a misunderstanding on the user-end.
