I want to file my taxes online today, and have used the free version of TurboTax for the past several years, but I’ve misplaced the paperwork for it.

Can I file this year’s return on TurboTax without knowing my PIN or line 60 amount from last year?

You can start a new account - but it won’t import your info from last year.
