    To file a prior year with TurboTax, you must buy, download and install on your computer the program for the prior year return: https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/

     

    A prior year return must be printed and mailed by you. It can't be efiled.

    To complete and file a prior year tax return, 2018 thru 2016, using TurboTax you would need to purchase, download and install on a personal computer one of the prior year desktop editions for each tax year required from this website - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/

     

    A prior tax return can only be printed and mailed, it cannot be e-filed.
