My online Turbo Tax filing for 2020 was IRS rejected and not saved on my Laptop. Is there a way to access that tax return filed through a Turbo Tax website?

The online filing was IRS rejected because of inconsistency between that filing and my child's filing.  My old laptop that I previously prepared Turbo Tax returns on was not allowing me to save the 2020 tax return.

Thank you for that guidance.  When I access the link to the site you provided, I am not sure where I go next on that site to recover the document.  Is there something I need to search on or another link I need to select?  Thanks.

We better back up. Did you use the Online browser version or the Desktop CD/Download program installed on a computer?  What happened when you tried to save it?

A was using Turbo Tax Premier accessed through a CD in my laptop.  When I reached the filing stage using Turbo Tax on my laptop an online filing of the return was done and I closed the Turbo Tax on my laptop (without being able to save the return on my laptop).
