THANK YOU EVERYONE!
Today I spoke with a great TTax rep (Sikirat) who convinced me the bank account numbers will NOT show on the TurboTax Form-1040 until AFTER I have eFiled. After TTax eFiles, then the numbers will show on TTax's Form-1040. I hope he is right, but this "after it's done" programming is inconvenient and makes it difficult to catch an error before it is too late.
I asked Sikirat to suggest to TTax that they change this XXXXX false secrecy because I'm the one using the program and I know the numbers and TTax does NOT need to use XXXXX to hide the numbers from me when I'm using the program. If the numbers ONLY show AFTER eFile, and they show AFTER I print what I eFiled, why are they no longer a secret? Thieves would see the print-out before they would every have access to my program data. When I'm using TurboTax on my computer (not live) where no secrecy is needed by me, the numbers should show on Form-1040 so I can more easily confirm that it is the account I still want to use. I should not have to waste time multi-clicking to find/open the Form-1040 worksheet.
Thanks again for your help and for letting me share my suggestion for TTax to STOP using this XXXXX false secrecy. Every year too many users search Google for answers about this XXXXX-TurboTax-caused inconvenience.
