Look at the email you received from TurboTax.

 

You complete your tax return by finishing all 3 Steps in the File section. In Step 3, to e-file your tax return, you must click on the large Orange button labeled "

Transmit my returns now

".

 

After completing the File section and e-filing your tax return you will receive two emails from TurboTax. The first email when your tax return was transmitted and the second email when the tax return has either been accepted or rejected.

Thanks for answering, but what if you no longer have that email on your phone isn’t there a better way that TurboTax can do this simple process of putting a date on the return electronically or on the paper when you print it out?

The Filing Instructions page will have the date filed and the date received by the IRS.

 

To access your current or prior year online tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the User ID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

 

When you sign onto your online account and land on the Tax Home web page, scroll down and click on Add a state. 

This will take you back to the 2020 online tax return.

Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the online program screen.  Then click on Print Center.  Then click on Print, save or preview this year's return.

You can click here for assistance with accessing your return to see your Electronic Postmark, which is a timestamp of when you filed.
