After you file

Ugh.  If you used desktop software for last year's return, it was only stored on that hard drive.  Returns prepared using downloaded software or from a CD are only on your own computer, or on a flash drive you used for back up, etc.  They are not stored online with TurboTax.  If you did not print a copy or back up the return, it is gone.  You can get a transcript of the return from the IRS:
