That will be in the worksheets that are part of the pdf of the past year return.  

 

  You have to access your own account and/or  print it for yourself using exactly the same account and user ID that you used when you prepared the return.

 

Start a 2023 return online and enter some personal information  so that the menu on the left opens up and lets you access your past year returns.

Many people have multiple TT accounts and forget how to access them.  Log out of the account you are in now.

Or did you use the desktop version of TurboTax?  If so, the files are on your own hard drive or any backup device you used like a flash drive.

You can get a free transcript from the IRS or for a fee of $43, an actual copy of your tax return.

Just one added note, if you did not file with Turbo Tax last year, contact the IRS by accessing the link provided above.  Also if you used Turbo Tax in 2022, you can access your 2022 return by:

 

  1. Logging into Turbo Tax
  2. Select Scroll down Your tax returns & documents in your landing page
  3. Select year 2022, if it is there.
  4. Select amend 

This will place you in your return.  From here go to:

 

  1. Federal>wages and income
  2. Less Common income
  3. Gambling Winnings
  4. There should be an amount listed here if it was reported.
  5. Close the program
