To print a copy of a prior year return to use for FAFSA, sign into your account and go to the
Prior Returns link under the
Account menu in the top-right corner of the screen. You can view and print any of your previous returns that you filed with FreeTaxUSA within the account you are signed into.
Alternatively, you could use the IRS Data Retrieval Tool which transfers your IRS tax information directly into your FAFSA. To use the Data Retrieval Tool, complete the following steps:
- Go to fafsa.ed.gov and select the "Start Here" button
- Log in using your FSA ID
- Select the "Continue" or "Make a Correction" button
- Select the "Financial Information" tab from the top of the page.
If you didn't do your prior year return using the FreeTaxUSA software, you can request a transcript of your tax return from the IRS website. The IRS
Get Transcript Online tool allows you to download your transcript immediately, or you can call 800-908-9946 to request a copy of your transcript to be sent to you via mail.
