Question

Retrieve my 2017 tax return

I need to retrieve my 2017 tax returns.  I used Turbo Tax but not the online version.  My laptop crashed and they had to erase everything to get it to work again.  Is there another way to get it?

Oh no! Sorry you had to erase your computer. 

You can request a transcript through the IRS website: https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript 
There will most likely be a fee.

I filed an extension and now want to complete it and I'm trying to print out my 2017 complete tax form and can't seem to do it.  I tried your link and I get a 404 error - guess it is no longer available.  I just need to get a copy of my return and extension papers so I can take to CPA! I need Help ..  Thanks

I see that your specific response is regarding your 2020 return. How did you file that return - using Turbo Tax Online or the desktop software? also are you using a PC or MAC? @Maiyabella.
