@rkkirkwood Bad news. You deleted it and cannot get it back. You cannot perform tax file transfer after you have already begun to enter 2021 data. If you try--you lose everything you have entered so far---as you just discovered the hard way. The transfer was not just going to be for the CA return. Trying to transfer a 2020 tax file after you were already in progress with preparing your 2021 return deleted it all. You will have to start over. Sorry.
