Hi there. I'm looking for my 2019 tax returns and can not find them. I saw that I can obtain that info from this site where I filed for that year. Could you please help me!?  Thank 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.

    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.

    SAVE YOUR TAX RETURN !

     

    EVERY year before mid-October you should save a copy of your tax return as a pdf and print a copy of it for your records.  That way you will not be searching online frantically when you need it for a lender, FAFSA forms, your next tax return, etc.
