Question

Since I have to wait for it to arrive by mail, I cant obtain it through the online system. Can I mail in my tax return forms on time if I do not have my 2019 transcript?

I cannot access my 2019 transcript online.  I have applied for it to be sent by mail, but am wanting to find out if that is needed to file my tax return. I was not aware that I would need this information, so need to know whether to file my taxes, or a application for extension.

Do you need the 2019 AGI to efile 2020?  How did you file 2019?  Did you use Turbo Tax?  You can look it up.  And when did you file 2019?  You can try entering 0 for the AGI to efile.  That is working for most people since it took the IRS a long time to pocess 2019 returns.

 

If you used Turbo Tax for 2019,  The AGI is on 2019 1040 line 8b. If you filed a Joint return you use the same AGI for each spouse.
