First LOG OUT of whatever TurboTax account you're logged into right now. Then use this TurboTax account recovery website to get a list of user ID's for an email address. Run the tool against any email addresses you may have used https://myturbotax.intuit.com/account-recovery/ How to Access prior year online returns https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/prior-year-return/help/how-do-i-access-my-prior-year-return/00/27010 If you can't get the side menus to open up to access the prior year..... You need to start entering some basic Personal Info in 2024 for the side menu to open up. Just continue a little ways into 2024. I had to go though about 12 screens. If you used the Desktop CD/Download program then the only copy is on your computer and not saved or stored online. So you need to make and keep your own backups. Or request a transcript from the IRS https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript Or get a copy of your return using form 4506 https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf

I got scammed by your 2023 Transcript claiming I made $300,000 which is obviously a lie.Everyone at my Job (under $40,000 With Ryder) Knows.I dont even own a car.Dont own a house.I need my 2023 turbo Tax transcipt.My CPA can't file an admentment. 

I am revisiting this post since I am about to file my taxes now after filing an extension.   I now have noticed other posts stating that I cannot use Form 8453 to file my Section 751 statement, because if I check the last box for Form 8949, it says to check it if you elect not to report your transactions electronically on Form 8949.   Since I was planning on efiling my tax return, then won't my Form 8949 already be electronically reported?   Is there a way to efile my taxes along with my Section 751 Statement? Or do I need to file and send my taxes through USPS? (And if so, what is recommended way of sending - registered? insured? etc.) Thank you!

My thinking is to treat this as a discount on the cost of repairs or the cost of the home.  That would be non-taxable, even though the builder's accountant may advise them to issue a 1099 for business reasons.  There is a way to report a 1099 on your return and then exclude it as non-taxable, we can cover the specifics when you are ready to file.     (Per the IRS, there is a right way to do this, but you can only do it in Turbotax using the version installed on your own computer. The online version only allows an almost-right method, but the IRS seems to tolerate it.  That's for 2024.  In case they update the program for 2025, I'll wait to give you instructions for 2025 until the software is released.)    If the facts make this something other than a discount, the payment might be taxable, but I would need more information to be able to think about it.

Your post is unclear.   We cannot tell if you are referring to the filing status you used---married filing jointly or married filing separately, or if you mean you combined all of your 2023 and 2024 income and put it on one tax return.   Please clarify.

You seem unsure whether you filed a tax return for 2023 (.."pretty sure last year..") and it seems you had a number of years during which you worked and did not file tax returns.   You are too late to get recovery rebate credits for the 2020 or 2021 stimulus checks.  If you had filed tax returns for those years in a timely manner, you could have received the checks for $1200, $600 and $1400.  The deadlines have passed to do that now.   If you owe tax due for any of those past years, the IRS still wants to be paid.   But it is too late to get refunds for any tax years earlier than 2022.  Do you need to file a 2022 return?   That can still be done using desktop download software.   Or you might need to seek help from a paid local tax prepare to help you sort out the potential mess you might have with the IRS. Online preparation and e-filing for 2021, 2022, and  2023 is permanently closed. Note:  The desktop software you need to prepare the prior year return must be installed/downloaded to a full PC or Mac.  It cannot be used on a mobile device.   To file a return for a prior tax year  If you need to prepare a return for 2021, 2022, or 2023  you can purchase and download desktop software to do it, then print, sign,  and mail the return(s) https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/ You may also want to explore purchasing the software from various retailers such as Amazon, Costco, Best Buy, Walmart, Sam’s, etc.   Remember to prepare your state return as well—if you live in a state that has a state income tax.   https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/state-taxes/contact-state-department-revenue/L9qVToi02_US_en_US?uid=m6e06um0   When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s.  Use a mailing service that will track it, such as certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.   Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses.  Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.

Follow the instructions that DoninGA posted to get a PDF of your 2024 tax return. The amended return, Form 1040-X, will be in the same PDF as the updated original Form 1040. If there is no Form 1040-X in the PDF, then you did not correctly amend the return. Did you file the amended return? If so, did you e-file it or print it and file it by mail? What year did you amend?  

You cannot amend your filing status from married filing jointly to married filing separately after the due date of the tax return, which has now passed for both 2023 and 2024. The only exception to that rule is if your joint tax return was invalid because you were not actually married at the end of the tax year. If that is your situation, correcting it is very complicated and requires the assistance of a tax professional who is familiar with the procedure. If you just file an amended return changing the filing status the IRS will reject it.
