Prays really work, God is good. PG 👍 How did you file the 2019 return--did you efile it, or did you choose to print, sign, and postal mail the return?  NOTE:  If you chose the option to print, sign, and mail, TurboTax does not mail it for you; you would have had to do it.   If you efiled, are you sure the efile was accepted by the IRS for processing?   If you used Online TurboTax, you can check the efile status by logging into your account, and at the Tax Home scroll down and expand the section "Your Tax Returns & Documents."   Then choose tax year 2019.   What is shown for the status of the 2019 return-- does it say accepted, rejected, printed, started, ready to mail, or what?   Also, if you efiled, then when you download your 2019 PDF, look for a page called "Electronic Postmark." ...

Derrell1 wrote: I mailed my return last year. Is there any to get work sheets from gov? Mailing a return has nothing to do with whether or not you can get the worksheets.   You didn't say what it is you specifically need.  Are you just wanting all worksheets in general that were used to prepare your 2019 return? You may be able to get them from TurboTax.    Did you use Online TurboTax or desktop software (CD/download) for your 2019 return?    Do you have the 2019 PDF?    Even if you already have a 2019 PDF, and if it doesn't have the worksheets, here's how to download the 2019 PDF again and see if it now has the worksheets.    TurboTax usually updates the PDFs with the worksheets late last year.   If you used Online TurboTax, log in and go to the Tax Home.  Scroll down to the section "Your Tax Returns & Documents."   Expand that section and choose tax year 2019.  Then choose the link "Download/print the PDF."   See if that PDF has all the worksheets.   If you are using 2019 CD software, then you should be able to go to Forms Mode and then select any of the worksheets, or select to download/print a PDF that has all the worksheets. ...

@f_d_alexander  I revised the answer above since it dawned on me (from your mention of "display resolution") that you are likely using desktop software (CD/download) and not Online TurboTax.   The answer I left was for Online TurboTax.   If you're using desktop software, you'll just have to see if it will let you efile after you missed the deadline, or whether you encounter a roadblock telling you it's too late.    I don't know how strict it is; i.e., a hard deadline or not.    If you try to efile, please report back if it was successful or not.   Again, I apologize for the confusion. ...

f_d_alexander  EDITED:   10/15/2021 at 11:00 PM Pacific   OOPS!!  I wrote the message below too quickly.  It is for ONLINE TurboTax, and may not apply to your desktop product.   If you missed the deadline, you'll just have to try and see if your desktop product lets you efile.  It might not, but can't hurt to try.   Sorry for any confusion.   ************************************************** Original Message below is for ONLINE TurboTax.    With Online TurboTax you can probably still try to efile even if late.   This FAQ makes it sound like efiling in Online TurboTax is still possible until October 29.   FAQ:  What if I missed the October 15 filing deadline? https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/filing-and-paying-taxes/help/what-if-i-missed-the-october-15-filing-deadline/01/25741   If you owe Federal taxes due, and if you efile late, there could be an IRS tax penalty.   If you are due a Federal refund, there is no penalty for a late Federal return.   Probably likewise for a state return, although state rules can vary. ...

The last paragraph in that FAQ is confusing, too, since it says Online TurboTax can no longer be used to "start, finish, or efile" after October 29.   That makes it sound like one can start/finish/efile prior to that date. ... View more

@xmasbaby0  This FAQ you provided above makes it sound like one could still submit an efile up until October 29.  It says:   "If you started your 2020 return on TurboTax Online you have until 9 PM PT October 29 to file your return online, but it may be subject to late filing fees."    (if taxes are owed)   ...

 ksds654  asked:  " Do i get charged a fee if my tax return was filed a half hour late?"   What do you mean by "charged a fee?"  Are you referring to a penalty from the IRS?   You'll have to wait and see.  It's possible--if you owed Federal taxes due.    However, if you are due a Federal refund, there is no penalty for a late Federal return.   If you owed Federal taxes due, there can be a late filing penalty and a "failure to pay" penalty.   Even if you have a penalty, you may be able to ask the IRS to forgive a first penalty. https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employed/penalty-relief-due-to-first-time-penalty-abatement-or-other-administrative-waiver ...

@bred54man wrote: How can i e file without my pin It would have been good to make it clear what type of PIN you are referring to.   For this answer, I'll assume you are referring to the 5-digit Self-Select PIN from last year, as opposed to a 6-digit IP PIN (Identity Protection PIN.)   It's not necessary to have the 5-digit Self-Select PIN from last year in order to efile.   Most people verify their efiling using the 2019 AGI instead.  A screen should allow you the alternative to get to a 2019 AGI field and to use the 2019 AGI instead.   As you proceed, however, there will, still be another screen asking you to choose a new 5-digit PIN (known as a Self-Select PIN).  It's a signature screen and will say to enter any 5 digits of your choosing, and I believe it will be on a screen with today's date and your birth date.    For the purposes of that screen, you can use the same one from last year or create a new one.   That being said, if you do want to try to find the 5-digit Self-Select PIN from last year, there's a possible way to get it--IF you have the full PDF of the 2019 return that includes the worksheets.  The PIN is on a worksheet called "Federal Information Worksheet" and is near the end of the worksheet (Page 4). ...
