Let me share some insights on how data files are handled after subscription cancelation, @Jrsutton1964.

 

Depending on your subscription, QuickBooks can give its users a one-year read-only access to their data files after cancelation. However, QuickBooks Self-Employed accounts are immediately locked out after the cancellation is confirmed.

 

I can see that you've already reached out to our QuickBooks Online support. However, it would be best to contact directly our QuickBooks Self-Employed specialist. This way, they can provide you a temporary access to your account so you can download your data out of the program.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Type in "Talk to a human", then press Enter.
  2. Enter the same keyword (Talk to a human) when prompted. 
  3. Click I still need a human.
  4. Select between Message an agent and Get a callback.

 

Please check out our support hours to ensure that we address your concerns on time.

 

Once you have the access to your QBSE account, you can follow the steps provided in this article to move your data files to QBO: Switch from QuickBooks Self-Employed to QuickBooks Online.

 

If you have further questions or concerns, feel free to reach back out anytime.

I've got steps and info to ensure you can log in to your account, @pirani2404.


Let me show you how:

  1. Go to the sign-in page, and then choose I forgot my user ID or Password.

  2. Enter your phone number or email address, and then select Continue.

  3. Follow the on-screen instructions. You'll receive an email with your user ID if you used your email address to verify your account. 
  4. In case you don’t see an email within an hour, please check your spam or junk folder. If you still don’t have the email, you’ll need to request your user ID again. 
  5. If you don’t have access to the email you used when you created your account, you can send us a request to recover your account.

If the same thing happens, clear the data so you can use your new password. This way, your browser will delete the saved old log-in info. Then, close your browser and reopen it.

To protect your account, I suggest not to share your login credentials, like your username and password. For more tips, please browse this resource: How to protect my account.
