State Download File

Where is the State File Download saved on my Mac?

What is the file extension for this file?

I just want to make sure it was downloaded into the right folder. It's not showing up in my app.

If you just downloaded TurboTax for Mac, look for the icon on your desktop.

You can also search for it by file name:

  • Search for m_turbotax
  • For TurboTax state program, search for m_[state] and replace [state] with the state's name.
    • Example: Search for m_ohio to find your TurboTax Ohio state download.
    • For multi-word states, separate the words with an underscore (_). Example: search for m_new_york to find your TurboTax New York state download.

Maybe you're missing what I am saying. I was looking for where the State Form is saved on my HD not the program. I found it under Library/Application Support/Turbotax 2022/Forms/AZI_20.formset. That one is for AZ. I also have VA which is labeled VAI_20.formset
