SAVE YOUR TAX RETURN !
EVERY year before mid-October you should save a copy of your tax return as a pdf and print a copy of it for your records. That way you will not be searching online frantically when you need it for a lender, FAFSA forms, your next tax return, etc.

NOTE: TurboTax and the IRS save returns for seven years. Returns older than seven years are purged.
If you filed for free in 2018, you had until October 15, 2019 to access and save your file. After that you needed to purchase Plus in order to view the free return. The rules are different now, but you will see an option to purchase Plus and after you pay that $29 fee will be able to access your 2018 return that was filed for free.
