How do I print a copy of my tax return in TurboTax?

SOLVED•by TurboTax•239•Updated January 30, 2024

When you print a copy of your return, we include everything that was sent to the government, plus extra documentation and calculation worksheets.

However, the printout won't include copies of the entry forms you got in the mail, such as T-slips or Releves. If you need copies of those, contact whoever issued them originally.
