      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 2024 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.

    You can get a free transcript from the IRS or for a fee of $30, an actual copy of your tax return.

    SAVE YOUR TAX RETURNS !

     

    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.

    NOTE:  TurboTax and the IRS save returns for seven years.  Returns older than seven years are purged.

    Did you e-file?  Did you click a big orange button that said “Transmit my returns now?”

     

     

    When you e-file your federal return you will receive two emails from TurboTax.  The first one will say that your return was submitted.  The second email will tell you if your federal return was accepted or rejected.  If you e-filed a state return, there will be a third email to tell you if the state accepted or rejected your state return.

     

    First, check your e-file status to see if your return was accepted:

    If the IRS accepted it, what does it say here?  

    https://www.irs.gov/refunds         

      Or does your account say “Ready to Mail?”

     

    Note:  If it says “Ready to Mail” or “Printed” that means YOU have to mail it yourself.  TurboTax does not mail your tax return for you.
