After you file

It's not uncommon to have problems with that Download/print button method, and it can also take a PDF a while to update at the Tax Home page.
Has your recently-efiled 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:
After one has efiled and been accepted, it can sometimes take a return PDF a while to update and become available at the Tax Home. If you can't use the Download/print button at the Tax Home, you can try scrolling down to "Your Tax Returns & Documents", expand that section and choosing to download/print the PDF. Or if you're getting incomplete documents when you use either of those methods, here's an alternate way to print by opening the filed return back up to print at the Print Center, where you can even get the extra pages such as worksheets, summary pages, etc.
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 2019, 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.)"
- See if one of those PDFs has what you need. 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.
