I started my 2018 taxes last year but never completed it.

You would need the 2018 Download software, you cannot file prior year returns with the Online version. The Online version is only to file the current years tax return (2019). You can prepare your 2019 return Online.

Prior year returns cannot be e-filed with TurboTax. To file your 2018 return with TurboTax you will need to use the 2018 Download software (or go to the IRS website for prior year forms). To purchase the software from TurboTax go to the following website.
