Question

I amended 2023 but needed to submit an original, and when it was completed, it said 2024. What should I do? Can I submit another one?

    Online is only good for 2024 now.   Why do you need to amend and what do you mean you needed to submit an original?  If you didn't file a 2023 return you do not amend it, you just file a new 2023 return.

     

    Sorry it's too,late to start a 2023 or prior online return or use the mobile app, either on Turbo Tax or the IRS. And too late to efile 2023.

    If you need to start 2023 or prior you can buy the Desktop download here,

    You will need a full Windows or Mac to install it on.
     
    If you have a simple return and want to file for free you can fill out the forms by hand.  Here are some basic forms.....

    Here is the 2023 1040 return

    Don’t forget your state. And you will have to print and mail your returns.  So be sure to attach copies of your W2s and any 1099s that have withholding on them.  You have to mail federal and state in separate envelopes because they go to different places.  Get a tracking number from the post office when you mail them for proof of filing.

    Then when you file for 2024 you need to enter 0 for the 2023 AGI since you are filing 2023 late.

    You would need to purchase, download and install on a personal computer one of the 2023 desktop editions from this website - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/

    Then you better clear out the "2024" return you filled out for 2023 so you can use it for 2024 and not accidentally file it as 2024.  How to clear and start over
