More details to this question:
My fiance has been preparing my taxes for a few years now, and this year she did her mother and fathers taxes. She used their computer to file both mine and theirs, and all we're saved to a flash drive at their house. We received a phone call from her mother complaining about how MY taxes were filed. Is it illegal for her to view them without mine, or my fiance's permission? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Tax filings are normally confidential but if you leave them on another's computer it is the same as leaving them on a counter top.
