I filed extension thru TurboTax Self-Emp 2016, but missed the 10/15/16 deadline. I do not need to amend, but file.What R my options on a Mac and to file for the 1st time?

I went to log on to TurboTax, and the only options are to file 2017.  I need to file my 2016 first, and the site provides instructions to amend - download the file, download the desktop version (Windows only), log in using same credentials, and amend, then submit.  

I do not need to amend my 2016 return, since I have not filed yet.

I'm filed an extension thru TurboTax Self-Employed 2016, but missed the 10/15 deadline to file for 2016 and am using a Mac. I do not need to amend my 2016, but file my taxes. What are my options on a Mac and to file for the first time?

You will also need the 2016 tax data file from the 2016 Timeline so that you can open the data file to continue the 2016 tax return after installing the 2016 software.  In the desktop edition click File>Open Tax Return

I have not filed my taxes yet, and I need to complete my 2016 return.  I was waiting on a missing W2.

[atortorici51]

so, back to my original question...what software can I use on a MAC to open my 2016 return, that's been started, but not completed, so I can update with the W2 information and complete to file to the IRS?
