I'm working on my 2017 taxes and I'm at the file by mail or e-file and I want to look at the return before I submit it via e-file. How do I look at it now?

You can stop where you are now, and preview your tax form now before you send it.

To preview the information on your 1040 form: 

  • Sign in to your TurboTax account and click on 'Take Me to My Return'
  • On the left, go to the black vertical menu and click on Tax Tools
  • Select Tools 
  • Then select View Tax Summary, first on the list under Helpful Links.  This will show basic information about the return
  • On the right, on the black menu strip, click on Preview My 1040

When you are ready to file, just click the File button on the left and it will take you back to where you were.
