Question

I need to get a copy of my non-amended return from 2018, but I cant seem to find it by downloading my tax return information. Is there a way to get it easily?

You can access your prior year returns using the Documents tab in the navigation. 

  • When you sign in, make sure you're using the same TurboTax account (with the same username) as in prior years.
  • Select Documents from the navigation when it appears.
  • Use the drop-down menu at the top of the screen to choose the tax year you want and then select Download PDF.

Did you amend 2018?  Then only the amended return is saved in your online account.  Only the last return done is saved.  The amended return overwrote the original.

 

You would have needed to download the original return pdf to your computer before you amended it.

Please let me know where I can find my 2018 return that I sent in, before I amended it. I need it to send with my daughters college application.
