Is there a way to get federal tax returns or transcripts from the IRS online?

filing bankruptcy purchase prescription drugs and need to get the past 4 years worth for my attorney.
Practitioners can, you can’t. If you have a fax machine, you can call IRS and request the transcripts be sent through the transcript delivery system. If you don’t have a fax you can go to efax.com and sign up for free basic service and receive 20 pages per month.
IRS doesn’t provide any tax information on line. You must either download Form 4506-T Return Transcript (FREE) from the IRS website http://www.irs.gov or visit the local IRS office in your city to obtain the transcripts.
If you need the actual tax return then use Form 4506 and pay $57 for each year. But the transcripts should work for you because Bankruptcy just needs proof of filing income tax returns.
