Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Yes, you may be able to recreate your prior year tax return to transfer to the current tax year.

First, you will need a copy of your complete return from last year, including all worksheets and schedules. Second, you will need to install the TurboTax software from last year.

Then, work through the step-by-step interview from the beginning, using the information from your previous return. Be sure to save this return to your computer and in another format for safe-keeping.

Without a complete copy of your prior year return, it will be difficult to enter assets for depreciation and some carry-forward amounts. If you do not have a copy, you can request a transcript from the IRS if needed at http://www.irs.gov/Individuals/Get-Transcript.
