    No one in this user forum can see your account or your tax return.   If you provide some details -- without any personal information like SSN, email, etc. -- we may be able to help you.  But you will need to be specific about the help you need and ask some specific an clear questions.

    Any professional can look at your paper copy of your tax return and your tax documents and address your issues. They don't need to use TurboTax.

    A tax pro does not have to use TurboTax to look at your tax return.   You can print out a copy with your worksheets, gather up your own tax documents and go to a pro if you need lots of help.

     

      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.

     

    Start a 2023 return online and enter some personal information  so that the menu on the left opens up and lets you access your past year returns.

    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.
