I thought I filed my 2019 taxes but somehow they did not get transmitted to the IRS and State.  I paid 

Turbo Tax to file both CA State and Federal.. 

what can I do to finish and file them?

    If you forgot how to find the account use the recovery tool:

     

      You have to access your own account and/or  print it for yourself using exactly the same account and user ID that you used when you prepared the return.

    Many people have multiple TT accounts and forget how to access them.  Log out of the account you are in now.

    Online tax preparation and e-filing for 2019 returns is now permanently closed.  You had until midnight on Thursday, October 15, 2020 to finish and attempt to e-file; if your e-file was rejected you had until October 31, 2020 to make corrections and re-file. Now it is too late to use online software or to e-file. If you have any changes/corrections at all to make to your 2019 return, you now have to complete it using desktop software, which you must download to a full PC or Mac  (not to a mobile device).Then you need to print, sign and mail it.

    If you already paid for your online software you can ask customer support for a download of the desktop software.

    They are available from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. Pacific time Monday-Friday.

    If you are getting a refund, there is no penalty for filing late.  If you owe tax due, then file and pay the amount due as shown on the Form 1040, but expect a bill later from the IRS for the penalty and interest you will owe.  Only the IRS will calculate this—TurboTax will not calculate it.
