What is "it" that says 2015? Where exactly does it say 2015?

When you posted your question you indicated that you are using TurboTax Online. But TurboTax Online is only for 2016. You could not have prepared a tax return for 2015 with TurboTax Online. Also, if you recently amended a 2015 tax return, you could not have done that with TurboTax Online. Are you actually using the CD or download TurboTax software installed on your computer? If so, you have to use separate software for each year. It sounds like you have the 2015 TurboTax software installed, and used it to file or amend a 2015 tax return. You can't use the 2015 software for a 2016 tax return. You have to purchase a CD or download of the 2016 software.

If you're not sure whether you are using TurboTax Online or the CD/download TurboTax software, see the FAQ at the following link.

If you need to buy the Desktop CD/Download program for 2016

Turbotax online can only prepare the current year (2016).  If you think you used online to prepare a 2015 return, you have a problem you will need to fix.  

Turbotax Desktop is specific for each year.  The 2015 program has the 2015 forms, the 2016 program has the 2016 forms.  You may need to buy the 2016 desktop program, or switch to using Turbotax Online.
