I have a PAPER COPY of my 2019 tax return (1040-SR) but not the computer file which vanished with my old computer. I also still have the 2019 CD which I have reinstalled into my computer.
How do I re-enter last year's (2019) return into the 2019 CD program so I can import the results into this year's tax preparation files?
I still have the 2019 CD program and reloaded it onto my computer thinking I would be able to fat-finger the 2019 numbers into a "new file" for last year, save it and then import it into this year's program that I have purchased from Costco. However, I don't see a way to edit the 2019 program file by simply inputting the numbers from the paper file I have available.
There should be a simple way to open a 2019 "form" and input the data from the paper copy, save the results and then import the recreated 2019 file into the new 2020 file I will be working. Help please.
