Where do I find a copy of my filed return in TurboTax Online?

SOLVED•by TurboTax•10464•Updated February 14, 2022


If the tax return you're looking for was filed using TurboTax CD/Download, it won't appear in your TurboTax Online account. If you want to transfer information from a CD/download return to the online edition, follow these steps.

Note: Tax return access (TRA) services are included in all free and paid products beginning in the 2019 tax year, regardless of whether you've added any PLUS features to your account.

1. Sign in to TurboTax Online

2. Scroll to Access your filed tax returns and select Open

3. This is where you’ll find the PDF copies of your filed returns.
