After you file

@1209 They system is presently in transition from 2018 to 2019, and will not be complete until sometime in December.  Until then, you will not be able to purchase PLUS to gain access to your old returns.

 

Meanwhile you can get a free transcript from the IRS:

To avoid this problem in the future:

 

Every year, before mid-October, print a copy of your current year tax return and save it as a tax file and pdf, too.  That way you will have it when you need it for school, a loan, next year’s tax return, etc. without going through a lot of aggravation (and expense)  to get it.
