Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

Turbotax used to transfer all previous years' info ( Rental property etc.) into current yr so that I did not have to enter all that again. Did TT remove that feature?

Did TT remove that feature? 

No, that is still available when you start a new tax return using the exact same User ID you used to create the previous year online account and transfer the prior year return to the current tax return.

 

Do you have more than one account?

Close all TurboTax windows on your web browser (including this one).  Copy and paste the account recovery website link onto a new web browser window and run the tool.

Use this TurboTax account recovery website to get a list of all the user ID's for an email address.  Run the tool against any email addresses you may have used - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/account-recovery

If none of the user ID's received will access your 2021 account, then use the option shown in blue on the account recovery website, "Try something else"

If you used the desktop CD/Download editions installed on your computer, the only copy of your tax data file and any PDF's will be on the computer where the return was created.  TurboTax does not store online any returns completed using the desktop editions.

You have to use exactly the same account and user ID in order to transfer the prior year information into the new tax return.  Are you in the same account you used for 2021?    And...you have to transfer the old information into the new return BEFORE you start to enter any new information.

 

 

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.
