Missing information?

salomonR — Mon, 09 Mar 2026 04:44:27 GMT

I filed both Federal and State returns on February 6th. Shortly after both returns were accepted, and I had no problem printing the State return. But the FEDERAL return states Preview Only when I try to print it. When clicking on the WHY button I get the following message:

Some state returns just take longer to process than others, but most returns will be ready to print or download by the end of January. Check back around that time to see if your return is ready.

It is almost March now. My State return was accepted and printed within hours. Yet my Federal return was accepted immediately, and still can't be printed. Am I missing something?

Thanks, but no... my question has not been answered. Return has been accepted for a month and I still don't know what "missing forms" means. I guess I will have to deal with the IRS directly.

May I ask which state is your state return for?
