My refund is not worth doing electronically. I just want to print and file by mail. Can I print my tax return and file by mail?

The fees for using online TurboTax are the same whether you e-file or mail the return in an envelope.  You are posting your question from online Deluxe.  It will not save you anything to file by mail instead of e-filing.  If you want to start over in a different software on another site:

 

-Use this IRS site for other ways to file for free.  There are 8  free software versions available from the IRS Free File site

Sure. Be sure to sign your return and to include your W-2 if you have one as well as any form with tax withheld.

To be crystal clear here----you posted from online Deluxe.  You cannot print your tax return for free.   In order to print your tax return to file by mail, you have to pay the fees.  The fees are not for e-filing.  The fees are for using the software to prepare your tax return.  Filing by mail does not save you money when you use online.   The software will not allow you to print unless you have paid.
