I want to access my 2018 tax return on line in order to complete it.  I missed the 10/15/19 due date because of questions from the IRS on my 2017 taxes filed early in 2018.

Thank you! I printed out my 2017 tax report.  I am arguing with the IRS about issues on the report.

 

I need to access my 2018 incomplete report.  I am needing to get my wife's SSA income for 2018.  Social Security sent her report for 2018 to the wrong address and we never received it.  I am having my wife contact SSA for her 2018 distribution.  They won't give it to me.  

What is the best way to access SSA for information on her SSA income?

Your wife can go to  SSA.gov and create an account at My Social Security where she can get a copy of her SSA-1099 online.
