I am using Premier on a new laptop (not Mac). I did not copy prior year TurboTax returns to the new laptop. If I get the data file from 2024, how do I get the 2025 return I have already started to recognize it?

If you used TurboTax Online, and are starting a 2025 return with the same account, your 2024 file will import automatically.

If you're using TurboTax Desktop, search your computer for a .tax2024 file when starting a 2025 return to transfer into your new return.

Here's more info on Transferring a Prior Year Return and Finding a Tax File on Your Computer.
