My 2020 Turbo Tax return  is not showing up in the comparison reports. How can I fix this? When I divorced a few years ago, I was forced to set up a new user name to do my 2019 return. That acct/user name is holding my 2020 return and not allowing access from the user name I've used for all my other returns. Oddly, my 2019 return is available on the comparison reports.

Are you using the desktop software or TurboTax Online?   If using the desktop, did you transfer in the prior year return when you started your 2024 return?   And if you are using TurboTax Online, did you use the same account you used last year?  @mjkassoc

If the interview told me to transfer in prior year data, and how to do it, I would have done so. What is the easiest way to tell ?
