Why do I need a 1040SR form with a VT state return?

TurboTax prints out a Federal Form 1040SR to go with the printed forms for mailing my Vermont State return. I can't figure out if I really need this. TurboTax has never done this before. I have not had any reason to recompute my Federal return. Any one have an answer? Otherwise my faith in TurbTax is shaken.

Yes. Vermont (VT) requires a complete copy of the federal return when you mail your state return. Here is an excerpt form the VT Income Tax Return Booklet.

If you are mailing in your return, please provide a complete copy of your federal Form 1040 (or 1040-SR), U.S. Individual Income Tax Return, as filed with the IRS along with all schedules. If filing jointly, you must enter the name and Social Security Number of your spouse/civil union partner.
