2015 tax refund

[rileyjanea]

Hello, I was trying to file my taxes for 2015 and not 2016 at the moment, is that possible?

Turbo Tax online is only good for 2016 returns now.  You have to buy and download and install  the prior year Desktop program to do an older return.  There is no penalty if you are getting a refund.  You have to mail in past year returns.  You can buy the prior year programs here,

If you want to do 2015 for free you can get the blank forms from the IRS and filll them out by hand.  Here are some blank forms & instructions for 2015
