The TurboTax online editions do not have any direct access to any forms, schedules or worksheets included in a tax return.  That option is only available for the TurboTax desktop editions in Forms mode.

 

However, you can view your Form 1040 at any time. Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the screen. Click on Tools. Click on View Tax Summary. Click on Preview my 1040 on the left side of the screen.

I have a MAC with no cd drive. In the past, I was able to download the forms. What should I do??

If you purchased the TurboTax 2020 software on a CD then see this TurboTax support FAQ if you do not have a CD drive - https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/installing/help/i-bought-the-cd-but-my-computer-doesn-t-have-a-cd-drive/01/26450

 

If you have not yet purchased the TurboTax 2020 software then go to this TurboTax website to purchase one of the desktop editions as a download - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/cd-download/

There is no Tax Tools on the left, right, top or bottom of my screen so please provide another way to view my 1040 preview. Have Turbotax premier - online , not desktop. Turbo tax charged the same amount , online is cheaper for Turbo tax than download so I thought the features would be comparable - not true.

@alan 1  Tax Tools > Tools > View Tax Summary (from the Tools Center popup).

 

You have to be in your return to see Tools (screenshots).
