You will need to use the recovery tool to look for the account(s) you may have used to prepare and file tax returns using TurboTax. When you use online TurboTax, returns are saved in online accounts for seven years, and then they are gone.
You have to access your own account and/orprint it for yourself using exactly the same account and user ID that you used when you prepared the 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.
NOTE:TurboTax and the IRS save returns for seven years.Returns older than seven years are purged.
