Why don't you have any record of any previous filings of my taxes via turbotax?

Were the returns prepared in Online TurboTax, but you can't find them when you log in at the Tax Home and look in the section "Your Tax Returns & Documents?" (or click in left menu column on "Previous Taxes?")  If you don't find them in that account, then you likely have multiple accounts.   If any returns were prepared in desktop software (CD/download), they will not be in an online account.

Here's how to troubleshoot for multiple accounts:

You can have up to 5 accounts that use the same email address for notification purposes.  A User ID may be an email address, but it doesn't have to be.  It might be only part of an email address, or it can be anything at all.

To get a list of your User IDs and recover account access, you can use the tool at the link below.  Try using your phone number first.   After that, if necessary, then run the tool on your email address(es) you can access.

NOTE: Before running the account recovery tool below, log out of all Intuit accounts including this user forum, or you might end up in a loop.  Then clear your browser Internet cache, close your browser, then reopen it, and go to the link below.  You may wish to copy this link so you can paste it into the new browser session.

If still no luck after running that on your phone number and email address(es) that you can access,  here's another method.
Go back to the tool again, but this time leave the data field blank, and choose the small blue link that says "Try something else", and it will look you up by SSN and other parameters.
