How do download a copy of an 8 year old tax return filed with Turbo Tax free edition

You cannot ... TT only keeps the last 7 years on file same as the IRS. 

After you file

TurboTax and the IRS save tax returns for seven years.  After that they are gone.  Going forward---save your tax returns as a pdf or save paper copies for your records.

 

SAVE YOUR TAX RETURN !
