It depends if you e-filed your return then usually you do not need to send any documents via mail. Should there be an exception TurboTax will print instructions on what documents you need to send in.

 

If you are mailing a paper return then please include any tax forms that had federal withholdings, like W-2, 1099s, etc

No.  Unless TurboTax specifically told you to send any forms to the IRS when you e-filed your return, you should be done.

Please see the TurboTax Help article "Do I need to mail anything after I've e-filed?" for additional information.

All you need to do is wait and see if the IRS accepts your e-filed return.  If it's rejected, please see the article "How do I fix a rejected return?" for guidance.
