Currently, you can use TurboTax Online only for the 2024 tax year

. You cannot use the online product to prepare or e-file returns for any prior years. To file returns for previous tax years, you must use the TurboTax Desktop software for PC or Mac and then print and mail the returns.

What new year do you need to do?  A prior year or start this  year's 2025 return?  The 2025 program and online won't open until mid November to early December.   Currently in Sept 2025 Online is only for 2024 returns.  You can still efile 2024 until Oct 15, 2025.    

 

Are you confusing the tax return year with the calendar year?  This year in 2025 we are doing our  2024 returns for the year ending 12/31/24.  In 2024 we did 2023 returns.
