You have to access your own account and/or print it for yourself using exactly the same account and user ID that you used when you prepared the return.

Start a 2023 return online and enter some personal information so that the menu on the left opens up and lets you access your past year returns.

Many people have multiple TT accounts and forget how to access them. Log out of the account you are in now.

Or did you use the desktop version of TurboTax? If so, the files are on your own hard drive or any backup device you used like a flash drive.

Go here to find a prior year's return, and go here to find last year's AGI.

The most common reason for not finding returns is signing in with the wrong user ID, which can happen if you have multiple accounts. It’s best to use the same account every year so all of your tax returns will be stored in one place.

If you need to find an account, our account recovery tool can help you find your user ID or password.

I used a Desktop version of TurboTax instead of TurboTax Online

I filed my return with H&R Block, TaxACT, or somebody else

I filed another return using the same user ID
