Need to import data from turbotax file older than previous year.

I have TurboTax Deluxe 2024 for Windows. And I have my .tax2019 file but I don't have those files for 2021-2023. I really would like to import dependents with all info like SSN, etc. And as much repeat data as possible so I don't have to start 100% from scratch with 2024. But it only shows me how to import .tax2023.

Sorry--you cannot transfer data from an old tax year in to your new 2024 tax return.   If you do not have a 2023 tax file you will need to enter the information by keying it in from scratch.   Only a 2023 tax file can be transferred to 2024.
