Financial Assistance / 1040 signature

I am told I need the second page of the 1040 sign to get Financial Assistance for a hospital bill. How do go around doing that if I did  it on turbotax? Do I download it and e-sign it? And then reupload it on turbotax afterwards? I know its on the second page.

You print it, use a pen and sign it in ink for them.  TT does not give you a way to "e-sign".   When you use TT you do not physically sign the return, since it was "signed" electronically when you entered your AGI or PIN.  There is never a physical signature on your self-prepared, e-filed return.   And.....since literally millions of people in the U.S. e-file tax returns and have that same situation, the officials in financial offices ought to be aware of that by now.   But sometimes to keep them happy, you just sign the paper copy using a pen.

Download the PDF of the tax return.  Print both pages of the Form 1040.  Sign and date the the tax return with an ink pen on page 2 of the Form 1040.  You do not upload the tax return back to TurboTax.

Form 1040 consists of two pages, or one sheet, double sided.

You can't re-insert the form into your tax file.
