I have no balance due and no refund on my D..C. tax return. I did not get a copy of the return (FORM D-40B). Do I need a copy of the DC return to file or not?

My question is not about the Federal Return. It is about the 2017 District of Columbia return. When printing the return, I got only the directions for filing it. How do I get a copy of the finished return to mail? Or do I need to mail a DC return since I have no refund and have no balance due?

Is this still the case for a 2018 DC tax return where there is no refund or tax due?

I support 100% of your suggestions. If there is no balance due or no refund,

Turbo Tax should say you do not need to file DC return.

what is the use of DC filing instructions ?

don't create confusion for your customers, get smart Turbo Tax !!!

Thanks
