Your W-2's are not there. TurboTax does not have copies or images of your W-2's. The worksheets that are part of the pdf of your tax returns will show the W-2 information, but there are no copies of the actual W-2's. If you want a copy of a W-2, ask the employer.
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.

SAVE YOUR TAX RETURNS !
EVERY year before mid-October you should save a copy of your tax return as a pdf and print a copy of it for your records. That way you will not be searching online frantically when you need it for a lender, FAFSA forms, your next tax return, etc.
