Same problem...this really sucks, been looking everywhere for the Federal Tax cover sheet...nowhere to be seen. I feel a bit ripped off, have to look through the return to get summary information. Not helpful.

 

Can't even figure out how to print the "Tax Summary" as a substitute, other than photographing it and printing the picture. Not doing that, so I guess what you see is what you get.

Not asking about worksheets. I’m asking about the Federal taxes COVER sheet, the one with the red Turbo Tax logo and summary of income and Federal tax. No problem with worksheets. The cover sheet for state taxes is there, Federal is not.

 

Hasn’t been a problem before....not impressed with Intuit QA, to miss an upfront feature like that. Hard to miss this one.

I'm also having the same issue. How do I download my return WITH the cover sheet? It's always been there previous years.
