TTax does not keep tax returns for that long. It is up to you to keep copies of your tax returns each year.
You should:
print and keep a paper copy of your return;
you should also save a .pdf copy of your return;
and you should also keep/save the .taxnn file for each year. (where nn is the specific tax year of the return
As a last resort you can contact the IRS and request either a Transcript or a Copy for the desired years.
There is a charge for copies; however, a transcript of the return is free.

FYI: You can only get IRS transcripts for the past 3 years and copies for the last 6 years. The IRS destroys tax returns after 7 years unless they are investigating fraud.
