You are supposed to save your own tax documents like your W-2's and 1099's. They are not stored online with your tax return. As already stated, there are a lot of different kinds of 1099's, mostly issued by various financial institutions. If you lost them/discarded them, you can ask for copies from the institutions that originally issued them--like your bank, brokerage, IRA custodian, etc.
If someone issued a 1099Misc for work you performed as an independent contractor then ask them for another copy.
You can also request a Wage and Income transcript from the IRS.

I NEED A COPY OF MY W-2 (or 1099)
TurboTax does not have a copy of your W-2—the Wage & Tax Statement—issued to you by your employer, (nor does TurboTax have copies of your 1099’s). You should always save those documents for your own records. You could ask the employer(s) for copies or you can get a copy from Social Security (for a fee of $86).
If you saved a pdf of your completed tax return, the worksheets will show the W-2 information you entered, but not the actual W-2.
