After you file

You will no longer be able to access the information you entered for your 2019 return online.  TurboTax Online is for current tax year (2020) returns. 

 

However, you can download either:

  • A PDF file of your return, which will just give you the information you entered but you cannot make any changes;  or 
  • A .tax file that you can open in the desktop version of 2019 TurboTax.  This will allow you to complete and file your 2019 return.  See this article for help downloading TurboTax for previous years:  Where can I buy old versions of TurboTax?

 

To access your 2019 return please follow these steps:

  1. Log back in to your TurboTax account.
  2. You should be on the Tax Home screen.  Scroll down to Your Tax Returns & Documents 
  3. Click the blue Show icon.
  4. Select 2019.
  5. Select either Download/print return (PDF) or Download .tax file

 

NOTE:  Whether you must file a federal income tax return does not depend on the size of your refund.  It depends on your gross income, your filing status, your age, and whether you are a dependent.  For more information on filing requirements, see IRS Pub.501 - Dependents, Standard Deduction, and Filing Information
