Why am I unable to see my old returns filed on TurboTax?

I have logged into intuit and turbotax and can't locate my returns. The intuit profile has a record of all my returns but when I select the relevant year and link, it directs me to a basic TurboTax home screen that only allows me to start a 2024 return or loops me back to my intuit account. Why can't I see my previous forms? Feels like a kafka circle of craziness

Do you have multiple TurboTax accounts?  See this TurboTax support FAQ for viewing all of your accounts - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/account-management/many-intuit-accounts-turbotax/L9aVfKS1Z_US_en_US

 

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 2024 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 $30 you can get a complete federal tax return from the IRS by completing Form 4506 - http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf
