I haven't yet received an "on point" answer to my question, so I'll try asking it differently.
The tax return is prepared. I want to print it out, and then review it on paper (as set up to be e-filed), before e-filing.
I reached a screen headed "We Recommend E-filing Your State Return". For Federal and New York, the choices of boxes to check are "E-file my......return now" or "Do not e-file my.......return now, I'll do it later". A previous screen indicated that in a few screens I would be asked if I want to print. But, when I check the box for "I'll do it later", I move forward but I do not get to that screen. If I check the box to "e-file now", will I get to the screen that allows me to print, before the returns get e-filed? I hesitate to check that box, because it sounds like the returns may be e-filed before I get a chance to print, review, and then e-file. This does seem unlikely, but I don't want to risk it. What screens come up after checking "e-file now"? How would you recommend I proceed?
I know I can go to the "print center" at any time, and print. But as the returns stand now, the returns will not have the instructions for e-filing or any other items which would appear for e-filing only.
Thank you.
