Can I get a copy of my 2017 Illinois taxes that were mailed in if IRS did not receive them?

TurboTax retains prior year online tax returns for the past seven years,  A 2017 tax return would no longer be available if the TurboTax online editions were used for the 2017 return.

The IRS is only for federal returns.  They won’t have a copy of your state return.  Did you mail state to the federal IRSi stead of to your state?  

Turbo Tax and the IRS only keeps the last 7 years. If they still have it……..
How to Access prior year online returns

If you can't get the side menus to open up to access the prior year..... You need to start entering some basic Personal Info in 2024 for the side menu to open up. Just continue a little ways into 2024. I had to go though about 12 screens.

If you used the Desktop CD/Download program then the only copy is on your computer and not saved or stored online. So you need to make and keep your own backups.

Or request a transcript from the IRS

Or get a copy of your return using form 4506

And....what are you trying to do----did you get a letter from IL that says you still owe tax for 2017?   It is far too late to file a 2017 IL to get a refund for that tax year.  TurboTax saves returns for seven years, so your 2017 return is gone if you prepared it using online TurboTax.

If you still need to prepare and file a 2017 IL return, you could get the 2017 form from the state to prepare by hand, or you could seek local paid tax help.   No refund will be paid; if you owe tax due for 2017 you will need to pay the amount shown on the tax form and then wait for the state to bill you for late filing and interest.
