I need to print a copy of my 2018 return, which was prepared via TurboTax. I no longer have the program -- how can I get my printed return?

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)

 

See this TurboTax support FAQ for accessing prior year online tax returns - https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/prior-year-return/help/how-do-i-access-my-prior-year-return/01/270...

 

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

Did you use the Desktop CD/Download program?  

 

Do you only have the .tax files?  You didn't save the pdf each year?  You would need to reinstall the program or you could try the TaxPrinter service to convert a .tax file to pdf at  http://www.taxprinter.com

They might be expensive and it is probably not safe to email tax returns back and forth.  They are not related to Turbo Tax.
