No one in the user forum has access to your account or your information. We cannot tell what you did--or did not do--for that return. If the return was not e-filed successfully, then it can be filed by mail now. What does it say in your account? Does it say "accepted," "rejected," "printed," or "ready to mail?" If it says anything other than "accepted" then it was not filed unless you personally put it in an envelope and took it to a mailbox.
When you e-file your federal return you will receive two emails from TurboTax. The first one will say that your return was submitted. The second email will tell you if your federal return was accepted or rejected. If you e-filed a state return, there will be a third email to tell you if the state accepted or rejected your state return.
r does your account say “Ready to Mail?”
Note: If it says 'rejected," “Ready to Mail” or “Printed” that means YOU have to mail it yourself. TurboTax does not mail your tax return for you.
If you realize now that your return was not e-filed successfully, then you will need to file it by mail. E-filing is permanently closed for past year returns. You will need to print the return, sign and date it in ink, and mail it in.
When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s. Use a mailing service that will track it, such as certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.
Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses. Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.
