What do you mean "tax docs" ?

 

Log into the current online program to start or continue the 2020 return.

Are you asking about the 2019 tax return that you filed in 2020?    Please explain what you are trying to do.

Yes! The 2019 taxes I filed in 2020. I logged in and it’s saying I didn’t file with them. I have 2 different accounts and both aren’t showing me anything.

@Christian darnell armstrong TurboTax cannot mail or email your tax returns to you.  You can download a PDF of your tax returns yourself.

 

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

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

Or -

When you sign onto your online account and land on the Tax Home web page, scroll down and click on Add a state. 

This will take you back to the 2020 online tax return.

Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the online program screen.  Then click on Print Center.  Then click on Print, save or preview this year's return.  Choose the option Include government and TurboTax worksheets

To access a prior year's return with TurboTax, you want to make sure you are using the same TurboTax account as in prior years. If that still does not work for you, you can order a tax transcript from the IRS using the link provided below:

Your question was answered 10 minutes ago on your prior post.  We do not have access to your tax records so you have to find out if you filed a tax return -

 

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/

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

Didn't the answer above work for you?

How to Access prior year online returns
https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/prior-year-return/help/how-do-i-access-my-prior-year-return/00/27010

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 2021 for the side menu to open up. Just continue a little ways into 2021.

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

@judy moore No one else has access to your account or your tax returns.   You have to access your own account using the the account and user ID that were used when you prepared your return.

@judy moore   It's common to end up with multiple accounts. First LOG OUT of whatever TurboTax account you're logged into right now. Then use this TurboTax account recovery website to get a list of user ID's for an email address. Run the tool against any email addresses you may have used
