Hi, my daughter needs my 2017 tax return for financial aid, but I'm unable to pay to download the document. I've tried following the instructions from the help tab, but nothing has worked. When I try to pay to upgrade, it says I already have deluxe, but I can only access my 2018 returns. How can I proceed to download my 2017 return?
