Does Turbotax keep copies of old tax returns filed via disc?

[Father4ever1]

My house flooded in August of 2016, and I lost both my paper copies of my tax returns and my electronic copies (computer was flooded as well.  I used the disc version/download version of Turbotax for the last few years.  Does Turbotax keep a backup of my return somehow?

Sorry, no.  Tax returns prepared using the desktop software are only stored on your own computer or any backup devices you used like a flash drive.  They are not stored online with TurboTax.  You can get a free transcript of your tax return from the IRS or you can get an actual copy for a fee.

You can also get a free transcript from the IRS:
