Get your taxes done using TurboTax
What are you trying to do? If you file a joint return with your spouse then you cannot file a tax return for just yourself. "he don't claim me.." No----a spouse can never be claimed as a dependent. That is why you file a joint return so that you combine your incomes on one return and get all of the tax benefits of filing together.
We cannot see any of your information. No, TurboTax Live is not free -- it is one of the more expensive versions--ranging in price from $80 to $200---and the state is additional.
If you want to find your old returns you can use the recovery tool:
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.
Many people have multiple TT accounts and forget how to access them. Log out of the account you are in now.
