To access your current or prior year tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the userID 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)
If you used the desktop CD/Download editions installed on your computer, the only copy of your tax data file and any PDF's will be on the computer where the return was created. TurboTax does not store online any returns completed using the desktop editions.
Or go to this IRS website for free federal tax return transcripts - https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript
For a fee of $50 you can get a complete federal tax return from the IRS by completing Form 4506 - http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf
I don't know if the IRS will still have transcripts that far back. You certainly cannot access them online. Either call the automated transcript service at 800-908-9946 or send in Form 4506-T to request the transcripts.
What do you need from a return that old ???
you're right. unless the IRS suspects something they only hold returns for 7 years. so 2012 might be available but not 2011
