TurboTax does not support tax year 2012.

If you used TurboTax to complete and file a S Corp tax return, Form 1120S, then you had to use the TurboTax Business Edition. The Business Edition can only be installed on a Windows based personal computer, not on a Mac or online.

If you used the desktop CD/Download editions installed on your computer, the only copy of your tax data file and any PDF's will be on the computer where the return was created. TurboTax does not store online any returns completed using the desktop editions.

Thank you for the immediate reply. It is very helpful. I did file my return using TurboTax e-file systems. I have emails from TurboTax of the transmission details. Can you provide the IRS's acceptance notification to me to complete the submission cycle?

Tax returns prepared in the TurboTax CD/Download software are stored locally on your computer or storage device, even if you e-filed.

Unlike returns prepared in TurboTax Online, TurboTax does not maintain returns prepared in the TurboTax CD/Download software on our secure servers.

To locate your return, use your computer's Search or Find function, just as you would when searching for any other document. If you just need to view or print your return, we recommend doing it from the PDF copy, which will open in Adobe Reader.

You can also search for the tax data file (instructions below), but you'll need to open it in the same-year version of TurboTax (e.g. open your 2019 return in TurboTax 2019, not an earlier version). From there, you can print a copy of your return, as well as update or amend it.

The electronic filing status for a 2012 tax return is no longer available using TurboTax. If you have the emails from TurboTax showing the date/time the return was transmitted and the date it was Accepted by the IRS, those could be your proof of filing.

The only transcript available from the IRS for a return that old would be a Tax Account Transcript at this IRS website - https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript

Additionally, if you have the 2012 software and Continue the 2012 tax return, click on Forms in the upper right of the program screen.

When in Forms mode, on the left side of the screen, there will be a Postmark Report which has the date/time the return was transmitted and the date it was received by the IRS.
