I can only see the first page as "Welcome to trubotax and Here's what to expect.... Let's go..." as I click "let's go" , the next page is pricing of the product. I cannot see the "prior documents" page.

How to Access prior year online returns

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 2023 for the side menu to open up. Just continue a little ways into 2023. 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

Or get a copy of your return using form 4506
