Paper filing federal and state

[Mbotello91]

I need to mail in my federal and state tax return but I want to make sure I’m sending everything and nothing is missing and what order. 

So for FEDERAL is it:

1. W-2, 1099 WITH withholding. (If there isn’t withholding it doesn’t have to be attached correct?)

2. 1040

3. Schedule A, B, C....

Also, where does my Form 4852? Do I also include form 540?

STATE:

1.w-2, 1099 that have withholding, form 4859 or form FTB 3525????

2. 540NR

3. CA schedules

4. Attach a copy of your federal return

I appreciate anyone’s help!

Please see the filing instructions document that prints out with the paper copy of your return. This will include what documents you need to mail in and the mailing address's. 

How do I print and mail my return in TurboTax Online?

Your Federal return includes the 1040 and its supporting Schedules and Forms. You will see attachment numbers in the upper right hand corner. For example, Schedule 1 has attachment sequence No. 01. If you see worksheets, or anything that specifies that it not be sent, keep these for your own records. 

For state, it is more or less the same format, but every state is different. Attach your Forms W-2, 1099-Rs and any other reporting document that has withholding on it.

Some states also require a Federal copy to be attached.

Ok just to be clear, in my case it would be:

For Federal: 

W-2s, 1040, Schedule 1, Schedule 3, Schedule EIC, Schedule 8812, Form 8880, Form 8962. 
So in my case would my form 4852 would go after Schedule EIC or with the other w-2s?

 And state:

W-2s & Form4852(?), 540NR, California schedules, Federal Tax return.

You should put the Form 4852 with your W-2 forms. The rest of your sequence is correct.
