If you filed the 2023 tax return and it was accepted by the IRS, then to make any changes to the 2023 return you will need to amend the return.

See this TurboTax support FAQ for amending a prior year tax return - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/amend-change-correct-return-a...

To access your prior year online tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the User ID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

Scroll down to the section Your tax returns & documents.  Click on the Year 2023 and Click on Download/print return (PDF)

Did you start your 2023 tax return on TurboTax Online?  @Rollar68   If so use the link below to finish filing your 2023 tax return.  

How do I finish an unfiled TurboTax return?

If you are needing to do something else, please reply with some details.

Please clarify,  did you use the Online version for 2023?  Or the Desktop program installed on your computer?  If you used the Desktop program then the only copy of your return is on that computer and not stored or saved Online.  So if your computer crashed and you don’t have a backup it is gone for good.

Unfortunately I did it online. I do not have the software and you guys have overcharged me if I can’t get back in so send me my files

No one else has access to your account; your files cannot be "sent" to you.

  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.

I paid you to do my taxes and I got a letter from the irs today wanting a complete form 15103

@205 966 6355  Paying the TurboTax account fees does not file a tax return.

Did you e-file your tax return and was it accepted?
Only the IRS and your State control when and if a Federal or State tax refund is Approved and Issued.

You complete your tax return by finishing all 3 Steps in the File section. In Step 3, to e-file your tax return, you must click on the large button labeled "Transmit my returns now".

After completing the File section and e-filing your tax return you will receive two emails from TurboTax. The first email when your tax return was transmitted and the second email when the tax return has either been accepted or rejected.

Note - Once a tax return has been Accepted by the IRS or a State, TurboTax receives no further information concerning the tax return or the status of any tax refund.  Only the taxpayer listed on the tax return can obtain the status of a tax refund or a tax return.

To check the status of an e-filed return, open up your desktop product or log into your TurboTax Online Account. You can find your status within the TurboTax product.
If accepted by the IRS use the federal tax refund website to check the refund status - https://www.irs.gov/refunds

If you did not file your 2023 tax return, it will have to printed, signed, dated and mailed to the IRS, it can no longer be e-filed.

Include with the 2023 federal tax return any forms W-2 and 1099 which show taxes withheld.

I can’t find my 2023 tax return. Did you file it? Also, you haven’t filed my 2024 taxes. Why?

[VolvoGirl]

Only you can file your returns by going through the 3 steps to the end and hitting the big Transmit Returns Now button.   When you efile you get back 2 emails.  The first email only confirms the transmission.  The second email says if the IRS (or state) Accepted or Rejected your efile.  And check your spam folder for them.

When you log into your account you should also see the status and if it was Accepted or Rejected, Started, Printed, Ready to Mail, etc.  What does it say?

How to Access prior year online returns
https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/prior-year-return/help/how-do-i-access-my-prior-year-return/00/270...

If you can't get the side menus to open up to access the prior year..... You need to start entering some basic Personal Info in 2024 for the side menu to open up. Just continue a little ways into 2024. I had to go though about 12 screens.

If you used the Desktop CD/Download program then the only copy is on your computer and not saved or stored online. So you need to make and keep your own backups.

Or request a transcript from the IRS
https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript

Or get a copy of your return using form 4506
https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf

DID YOU E-FILE?

Did you e-file?   Did you go through all three steps of the FILE section and click a big orange button that said “Transmit my returns now?”

When you e-file your return you will get two emails from TurboTax.  The first one will say your return has been transmitted; the second one will tell you the IRS has accepted  or rejected your federal e-file.  If you filed a state return, there will be a third email (usually a day or two later) that tells you if the state e-file was accepted or rejected.

Check your e-file status:

https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tools/efile-status-lookup/

 What does it say in your account?  Does it show that the return was accepted?   Or does it say something else---like "rejected," "printed," or "ready to mail?”

If you discover or realize that your e-file was rejected, you will need to print it, sign and date it in ink, and file it by mail now, since e-filing is closed for returns for tax year 2023.

When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s.  Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.

Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses.  Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.
