How do I print and mail my return in TurboTax Online?
by TurboTax• Updated 3 months ago
Note: If your TurboTax navigation looks different from what’s described here, learn more.
- Sign in to TurboTax.
- To open your return, select Continue or Pick up where you left off.
- Select File in the menu.
- You'll see 3 steps. Complete Steps 1 and 2 if you haven’t already, then select Start or Revisit next to Step 3.
- On the We've determined the easiest way to file your taxes screen, select Change next to the return you want to file by mail, and select File by mail on the next screen. Be sure to Save.
- If the File by mail option isn’t available, you probably previously selected to pay your TurboTax fees through your tax refund. To file by mail, you’ll need to instead pay with a credit or debit card. Here’s how to change your payment method from pay by refund, to pay by credit or debit card. Once you change your payment method, you'll see the File by mail option as described above. Select this and continue to the next step.
- Note: You’ll need to pay any tax balance due by check when you file by mail.
- Update the payment method for your TurboTax fees for all of the tax returns you wish to file by mail.
- Follow the instructions to print your return(s). If you haven't already paid any outstanding TurboTax fees, you'll be prompted to do so before you can print.
If you just need the mailing address: See the filing instructions document that prints out with the paper copy of your return. You'll see the mailing address in those instructions. For your federal return, you can also look it up at this IRS website.
Note: A READY TO MAIL status in Tax Home means your return is ready for you to print and mail in, if you haven't already done so. TurboTax doesn't mail your return for you.
