I filed my 2021 taxes using TurboTax and I also filed my 2022 taxes using TurboTax. I don’t have a copy of my 2021. I have 2022. Can you help?

How can I get a copy of my 2021 taxes that I filed using TurboTax?

  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.

Yes, you can download, print or preview your return that you prepared in TurboTax Online.

Here's how to do that:
 

  1. Sign in to the same account you used to do your 2021 tax return.
  2. Scroll to the bottom of the first page and select Your tax returns & documents.
  3. Select 2021.
  4. Select Download/print return on the right.

 

If you don't see 2021, you used a different TurboTax account for that return. To recover your account, start here. 

Enter your email address and then enter the verification code. The next screen will show you every account name connected to your email and the date you last used it. 

Pick the one that seems most likely to be the one you used for 2021. You will have to verify it again and will be prompted to change your password. 

You can repeat this as many times as needed to find the account you used.
