Where to find where .tax files of a 2020 declaration?

Hi, I need to download .tax files of my 2020 online declaration and I tried to follow the instructions here (and looked at the links it gives) but I have not found where to get those files: https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/choosing-a-product/help/how-do-i-switch-from-turbotax-online-to-the-turbotax-software/00/26129

The link that you have provided is for the US version of TurboTax. In Canada, the .tax format was only used to NETFILE returns, and has been discontinued for many years. 

 

Unfortunately, in Canada, you can't transfer TurboTax Online returns into TurboTax CD/Download. TurboTax Online can't create .tt files, which is what TurboTax CD/Download uses.
