Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Did you use desktop download software?   If you used desktop, and deleted the return, it is gone.   Returns prepared using desktop download are not stored online --- they are only stored on your own hard drive or any back up device you used like a flash drive.

 

 If you cannot recover them due to a hard drive failure, etc. you can get a free transcript from the IRS or for a fee of $30 an actual copy of your tax return.

If you just got confused and actually used online TurboTax:

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 2025 return online and enter some personal information  so that the menu on the left opens up and lets you access your past year returns.

Many people have multiple TT accounts and forget how to access them.  Log out of the account you are in now.
