It says: Your District of Columbia state tax return (Form D-40B) shows no balance due or refund amount and Your tax return The official return for mailing is included in this printout. Remember to sign and date the return. Attach copies of all W-2s and 1099s to your return, however there is no form attached and I have to mail in this form.

Actually you don't.  A Washington DC nonresident is not taxed in DC.  The D-40B is a nonresident request for a refund and is only used when DC tax has been mistakenly withheld.  Otherwise, a DC nonresident does not have to file a DC return.  You are not taxed there.

So do I need to just mail the cover letter and w-2s to the address listed?

When you were preparing your return you should have prepared a return as a non-resident of DC.  There are a couple of steps where you fill out the D-40B and verify your state of residency.  Then, when you have reached the end and have filed your federal return you will be able to print the DC form and save it to your computer as a pdf.  It should be separate from your federal return as a completely different file.  Then you can print it, sign it and mail it to the address that TurboTax includes in the pdf.

So what about those who live in another state worked in DC .. and on the W2 (for the job in DC) shows an amount that was taken out on line 17.. I requested a refund and the exact same thing happened saying it would print the form. Yet there is no D-40B anywhere in the tax return when you try downloading. I’ve called calling and had someone share my screen and all the options they advised to click to find it didn’t work.. and then the phone disconnected on their end …
