E-Filing Certification

[superman23]

I e-filed federal and state returns at same time. TurboTax prints an "Electronic Postmark - Certification of Electronic Filing" to show the date and time that Intuit received the federal tax return.

Is there any such statement provide for e-filing of state returns? I have not received these for NY or NJ.

Yes, you'll get confirmation that the states have accepted your returns. States generally take much longer for the acceptance response versus the federal government. 

You may also be able to check the status of the state returns, on the state websites, if you're getting a refund.

Thanks, but not what I meant. You're talking about TurboTax sending an email that says "Great news, (name)! Your federal tax return was accepted by the IRS." Same for the states.

I'm talking about the form that prints after e-filing. It's headed "Electronic Postmark - Certification of Electronic Filing". It provides the date and time the federal return was submitted. It also includes the federal return acceptance date. I have not seen anything like that for the states. This would be good to have.
