"I only filed for 1 job"----

 

For 2018? 

 

 Do you mean you used the online software and filed a return for 2018?  Online is only for 2019 income---no other year.  So if you used the online software and filed only one of your W-2's, and used the wrong software, you really messed up.  

 

Was that return actually accepted when you e-filed?  You are going to end up having a mess to fix.  If the IRS processes that return, you will have to amend it later, and take out the 2018 income and put in your 2019 income instead.  An amended return has to be prepared on a Form 1040X which must be printed, signed and mailed.  You will need to post back later for further help with that.

 

Meanwhile----the CORRECT way to prepare and file your 2018 income is below. Please note that ALL of the 2018 income is supposed to be on the same tax return.

Online preparation and e-filing for 2018 is permanently closed.

To file a return for a prior tax year

If you need to prepare a return for 2016, 2017, or 2018 you can purchase and download desktop software to do it, then print, sign,  and mail the return(s)

Remember to prepare your state return as well—if you live in a state that has a state income tax.

When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s.  Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.

Note:  The desktop software you need to prepare the prior year return must be installed/downloaded to a full PC or Mac.  It cannot be used on a mobile device.

 

If you are getting a refund, there is not a penalty for filing past the deadline.  If you owe taxes, the interest/penalties will be calculated by the IRS based on how much you owe and when they receive your return and payment. The IRS will bill you for this; it will not be calculated by TurboTax.
