    Please describe what problem you are having in printing the 2018 return.  How are you printing, and where is the roadblock?  Is there any error message?

     

    Are you using Online TurboTax or the desktop software (CD/download)?

     

    Are you wanting to print a copy to review prior to filing?   Or are you printing to file a return by mail?   Or have you already filed and are wanting to print a copy for your records?

     seems to be...that since I used the free version of turbotax to complete my 2018 taxes....that I cannot print a PDF file of the taxes unless I upgrade (and pay) to a different version.  Is this correct?  I hope not...or TT loses yet another customer.

    You can always get the current year free edition return.  

    Try printing from the Print Center
    Log back in your TurboTax account and "add a state" to open the return back up (you are not really adding a state, just to open it back up), then
    Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the online program screen. 
    Then click on Print Center. 
    Then click on Print, save or preview this year's return.  Choose the option Include government and TurboTax worksheets

    Or are you looking for a 2017 return you did last year in 2018?

    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
