After successfully submitting returns with a downloaded Turbotax Deluxe 2016, my computer crashed. I've re-downloaded Deluxe, can you restore the data for my return?

I don't need to resubmit the returns, I would just like to have all the data in my 2016 return for my records and to use next year.

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.

You can also get free transcripts of your federal return from the IRS - http://www.irs.gov/Individuals/Get-Transcript

For a fee of $50 you can get a complete federal tax return from the IRS by completing Form 4506 - http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf
