The tax year people are currently preparing returns for is 2025.   Are you trying to find a copy of the 2024 return you filed in 2025?

 

 

  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.

Start a 2025 return online and enter some personal information  so that the menu on the left opens up and lets you access your past year returns.

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

Or did you use the desktop version of TurboTax?  If so, the files are on your own hard drive or any backup device you used like a flash drive.

You can get a free transcript from the IRS or for a fee of $30, an actual copy of your tax return.

SAVE YOUR TAX RETURNS !

EVERY year before mid-October you should save a copy of your tax return as a pdf and print a copy of it for your records.  That way you will not be searching online frantically when you need it for a lender, FAFSA forms, your next tax return, etc.

If you used TurboTax Desktop, look for a .tax2024 file on your computer.  Check the Documents > TurboTax folder.

 

If you used TurboTax Online, Sign In with the same credentials you used last year.  Scroll down the home page to 'Tax Returns and Docs' and you'll see your 2024 return.  You can choose 'Download PDF' and/or 'Download Tax File.'
