Can I file my 2022 taxes if I don't have my 2021 tax info?

I'm trying to file my taxes on TurboTax for the first time. I don't have my tax info for 2021 because I had it done by a CPA last year and all my info was printed.
I don't have my paper info because it got lost in the shuffle when I moved overseas last October.

To e-file the 2022 tax return you will need the 2021 AGI.  The 2021 AGI is on the federal tax return Form 1040 Line 11.

The AGI will be on the 2021 transcript you can get online from the IRS - https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript

For a fee of $43 you can get a complete federal tax return from the IRS by completing Form 4506 - http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf

 

Or you can enter a 0 (zero) for the 2021 AGI and e-file the 2022 tax return.  If the IRS rejects the e-filed return you will have to print, sign, date and mail the return to the IRS.

Thanks. I tried making my request to the IRS, but their ID review process will take too long for me meet the deadline, so I ended up having to get an extension on my federal return (which I was not able to do without TurboTax, so at least there's that).
