I have filed 2020 return with a new address but on download/printout it shows old address why and how to fix to show ?

I'll assume you are referring to the address displayed for your return's main address at the top of your Form 1040; i.e., the address at which you want to receive mail from the IRS.

If you just recently made changes online in the return interview and then efiled, the PDF downloadable from the Tax Home may not yet reflect the changes.

If you efiled, what is the current status of the efile?    Is it pending, accepted, or rejected?  If not yet accepted, it's best to wait until it is. But the following may explain your current issue:

After one has efiled and been accepted, it can sometimes take a return PDF a while to update at the Tax Home.    Here's an alternate way to print by opening the filed return back up to print at the Print Center.

NOTE:  When you open your return back up, do not make any changes in it if it's already been filed.  If you later have to amend the return (for a reason unrelated to your address issue), it has to start off exactly as it was when it was originally filed.

• Log in and at the Tax Home or in the section "Your Tax Returns & Documents" for 2020, look for a link "Add a State."
• Click on "Add a State."  (you don't really add one.  That's just to open your return back up.)
• After the return is open, click in the left menu column on TAX TOOLS, then PRINT CENTER.
• Then choose "Print, save, view this year's return."
• The next screen should offer some options:  "Just my tax returns", or "include government worksheets (optional)", or "include government and TurboTax worksheets (optional.)"
• See if one of those PDFs has what you need.  The latter has the most pages.

NOTE:  Remember all PDF tax documents and tax data files are very sensitive files, since they contain your personal ID info, financial data, and possibly bank account numbers, etc.  Be sure to store them safely and securely to guard against computer theft, hacking, etc.
