    If you completed and filed the 2018 tax return using the TurboTax online editions then the 2018 tax return should be available.

    To access your current or prior year online tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the userID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

    Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and on the section Your tax returns & documents click on Show.  Click on the Year and Click on Download/print return (PDF)

     

    If the 2018 tax return is not listed, then TurboTax has not yet included the online 2018 return for access on the website after closing the 2018 online editions, but it should be available within a few days.

    TurboTax does not have a copy of the W-2 or Form 1099. It would have W-2 and Form 1099 worksheets that included the tax data from the forms that were entered. The worksheets would be included in the PDF of the tax return in the tax year the return was completed.

    Copies of a Form 1099 would have to obtained from the issuer of the form.

     

    If you cannot obtain the W-2 from your employer, then for a fee you can get a complete copy of a W-2 from the Social Security Administration - https://faq.ssa.gov/en-us/Topic/article/KA-02501

    You can get a free Wage and Income transcript from the IRS - https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript

    For a fee of $50 you can get a complete federal tax return to include copies of W-2's, if you mailed the tax return and included a paper W-2, from the IRS by completing Form 4506 - http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf
