Past tax returns

I was filing jointly with my husband from 2009 to 2019. I am filing married but filing separately for 2020 onwards as we were separated and now divorcing. For divorce i need to present joint tax returns from 2016 to 2019. My husband all these years joint tax returns via Turbo tax. Can i retrieve the past returns from 2016 to 2019?

 

Thanks

Past tax returns

You can try-----2016 is "iffy" ----TurboTax and the IRS save returns for seven years; after seven years they are gone.

 

 

  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.

 

Start a 2023 return online and enter some personal information  so that the menu on the left opens up and lets you access your past year returns.

Many people have multiple TT accounts and forget how to access them.  Log out of the account you are in now.

Or did you use the desktop version of TurboTax?  If so, the files are on your own hard drive or any backup device you used like a flash drive.

You can get a free transcript from the IRS or for a fee of $43, an actual copy of your tax return.
