I have an email confirmation saying 2022 Federal return was confirmed/accepted and I know I used TuboTax for 2022 but cannot locate a copy of the return on the app/site.

I’ve tried account recovery other options it suggested but I have the correct email/acct. It is just not appearing where it should be to obtain within the app under documents/prior year.

Back in April of 2022, you said that you paid $25 to e-file the state (would have been for 2021 taxes).  IF so, that only occurs for the CD/Desktop/Download software.

 

IF you also used the Desktop/Download software for your 2022 taxes (during 2023), your only copy would be on your own hard drive and any backups you may have made.

 

Even through you e-file THRU the TTX servers, if you use the desktop software to e-file, then your only copy of your file is on your own computer....and you absolutely MUST back-up the PDF copies on a USB flash drive.  You have no idea how many people post every year looking for help to find files that were on their crashed computer disk drives.

Only the "Online" software keeps a copy of your file for a few years, but even that goes away after 6 or 7 years....ALWAYS make your own backup copy on a flash drive
