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

 

Start the 2022 online tax return by entering some personal information then click on Tax Home on the left side of the screen.

 

On the Tax Home webpage -

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

 

If you used the desktop CD/Download editions installed on your computer, the only copy of your tax data file and any PDF's will be on the computer where the return was created.  TurboTax does not store online any returns completed using the desktop editions.

 

Or go to this IRS website for free federal tax return transcripts - https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript

For a fee of $43 you can get a complete federal tax return from the IRS by completing Form 4506 - http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf

"Did I file with you.."   

 

No one in the user forum can answer that.   No one has access to user's accounts, so we cannot tell you if you used TurboTax or if you used some other software,  or whether you even filed a tax return.

 

You can use the recovery tool to see if you used online TurboTax.   If you used the CD/download then the tax files are on your own hard drive.

 

If you used some other tax software, then you will need to try to remember for yourself what you did.  You can check to see if the IRS has a transcript of a tax return you filed, so that you can at least find out if you filed a return.  The transcript will not indicate what software you used.  Or you can pay the IRS for a copy of the return if you filed one.

 

You can get a free transcript from the IRS:   

https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript

 

Pay the IRS $43 for an actual copy of your tax return which will include copies of your W-2’s
