Do I need to mail my tax documents if I filed electronically? TurboTax prompted that I needed to mail documents after I filed electronically but there was a system error.

I filed electronically because I needed to pay taxes. Turbotax figured out how much I needed to pay and I could pay through them the federal and state taxes. When I filed, Turbotax prompted that I needed to print and mail documents as well, but then there was a system error and it wouldn't give me further information. Tax rturns have been accepted and payments already received. Do I still need to mail in my tax documents? And if so, where do I send them?

Since the tax returns were e-filed and the taxes owed have been paid, there is nothing that needs to be mailed to the IRS or your state.

I filed Electronically so why does it tell me on my Instructions sheet that I need to also mail my forms in?  Is that an error in the program?

If you accidently clicked on 'Print for Mailing' instead of 'Efile', your instructions would tell you where to mail your return.

 

Make sure you actually did Efile.  Here's how to Check Efile Status.  If you didn't actually Efile, you can go back to the FILE section and do so.
