After you file
Your comment above is blank and has no info. Are you having trouble printing a copy of your 2019 return? You didn't say what and where the roadblock is, so here's a general answer and an alternate way to download/print from the Print Center.
We don't know if you are using Online TurboTax (web version) or the desktop software (CD/download). So I'm going to assume for this answer that you are using Online TurboTax.
Are you printing for your records after efiling? Or printing for review prior to filing? Or printing to file by mail?
If you efiled, 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:
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. You didn't say "how" you are trying to print. Are you using the Download/print button at the Tax Home or the "Download/print the PDF" link in the section "Your Tax Returns & Documents"? If you're getting incomplete documents when you use one of those methods, here's an alternate way to print by opening the filed return back up to print at the Print Center.
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.
