I need to download turbotax 2012 so I can open my tax documents from that year. How can I do that?

You may need to search online to find a CD of TurboTax 2012 available for sale.

Before you go looking for that, though, click on My Account > Print Center. One of the options is to Print or view a prior year return. If you filed your 2012 return with TurboTax, you should be able to print it that way.

TurboTax only makes the last three years of tax software available, and 2013 goes away after April 18. This is because the IRS only accepts amended returns for the previous three years.

TurboTax  and the IRS  save returns for seven years if you used online TurboTax.  If you did not save a copy of your 2012 return it is gone.  Sorry.   AND 2012 desktop software is no longer available for purchase.

If you have a .tax or .tax20xx file you need that year's Desktop program installed to open it.

Turbo Tax doesn't have programs older than 3 years.  You might be able to find one on Ebay or Amazon or somewhere but you wouldn't be able to update it or download the state program.

You could try the TaxPrinter service (not connected with Turbo Tax) to convert a .tax file to pdf at

OR get a copy from the IRS -

I need tax information on property owned and renovated.  I have sold property (second home) and need information for capital gains issues.

If this was a second home (never used as a rental property), all you need to report the sale and calculate Capital Gain/Loss is the Cost Basis (Original Cost + Capital Improvements), the Sales Price and the Sales Expenses.
