My turbo tax history shows the return was filed successfully yet IRS is sending my late file penalty collection notices.

Does the IRS say you did not file your tax return at all --- or does the IRS say you did not pay your tax due? Your own bank or credit card records are your only proof that you paid your tax. Do you have such proof?

Received letter from irs stating we didn't file our 2022 taxes. We did and provided them proof. Where is our tax return?

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.

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.
