Where can I do to see my previous tax return with TurboTax?

How can I look at my documents from last year?

To access your prior year online tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the User ID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

 

Start the 2023 online tax return by entering some personal information then click on Tax Home on the left side of the screen.

 

On the Tax Home webpage -

Scroll down to the section Your tax returns & documents.  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 $43 you can get a complete federal tax return from the IRS by completing Form 4506 - http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf

You have to access your own account and/or print it for yourself using exactly the same account and user ID that you used when you prepared the return. Start a 2023 return online and enter some personal information so that the menu on the left opens up and lets you access your past year returns.

 

Go here to find a prior year's return, and go here to find last year's AGI.

 

The most common reason for not finding returns is signing in with the wrong user ID, which can happen if you have multiple accounts. It’s best to use the same account every year so all of your tax returns will be stored in one place.

 

If you need to find an account, our account recovery tool can help you find your user ID or password.

 

Other common situations include:

 

I used a Desktop version of TurboTax instead of TurboTax Online

I filed my return with H&R Block, TaxACT, or somebody else

I filed another return using the same user ID
