Sorry, but that cannot be done.

You can purchase 2017 desktop software as a download at this page and install it on your computer:

Or did you already start a 2017 return online prior to the 2017 online shutdown, and want to finish that without starting over? If so, you can download the *.tax2017 data file from your account and finish it in the desktop software. If you already paid for your product previously, TurboTax Support should furnish you the software.
The 2017 return cannot be efiled. It will need to be printed, signed, dated, and mailed. It is recommended to mail by a method that has tracking such as certified return receipt, priority mail, etc.
If you have both Federal and state returns, you need to mail each one separately to its respective tax agency.
If you are due a Federal refund, it takes about 6 weeks for the IRS to process a mailed return.
Approximately 4 weeks from mailing, if you are due a refund, you can use this IRS tool to check on the status.

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.
