If I download my return from 2017 it's in form 1040ez, I need form 1040. How can I get it? Thanks!

The 2017 Form 1040EZ is what was filed with the IRS for tax year 2017.

Based on the tax data you entered the the 1040EZ is all that was required to send to the IRS.  Form 1040A or Form 1040 were not needed.

This is not what I need it for. I need form 1040 for something else, not for the IRS.

What idiot is not accepting the 1040EZ?  It is a valid form and the one you filed.

I also need my returns with complete schedules.

To be honest i'm not very knowledgeable in this space, but it could be that the downloaded forms from TurboTax don't have complete schedules?

If you filed a 1040EZ there are NO more forms or schedules ... that is the entire return.  If this is for a mortgage then ask for this fool's boss since they are clueless.
