Default Tax return retrieval

My dad filed his taxes online last year and needs to get a copy of the return. He can't remember which service he used (smart, eh?) but he needs it as fast as possible. Does anyone know the best way to get it? He is freaking out because 'supposedly' he saved it to a floppy disk as a document and 'I' threw it away (what can I say, perhaps use the label on it and I wouldn't have tossed it). I told him he can probably go to a tax office locally and they can pull it up for him, but he won't believe me. Anyway, does anyone know where to go in the Houston area to get a previous tax return pulled up off file?

Any help is appreciated times two.

not meaning to hijack your thread:

what if, say that the previous year you didnt file but you were suppose to get a return would you be able to file with this upcoming year and not be penalized?

You have two easy and convenient options for getting copies of your federal tax return information--tax return transcripts and tax account transcripts--by phone or by mail.

Request transcripts by calling 1-800-829-1040, or order by mail using IRS Form 4506T (Request for Transcript of Tax Return). We do not charge a fee for transcripts. Allow two weeks for delivery.

And here is some information on what to do if you've missed filing:

The transcript will come in about 5 days, you will wait 60 DAYS for an actual copy to come from Austin.
