We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

I need to file a few previous years. How can I do so. I only need a simple return since I am single with no dependents and don't own a home. For 2014,2015,2016.

Tax year 2016 is the current tax year being reported.  You can use either the TurboTax online or desktop editions to complete and e-file a 2016 tax return.

See this website for the 2016 online editions - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/online/

See this website for the 2016 desktop CD/Download editions - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/cd-download/

For prior year returns you will have to purchase and download the desktop editions for each tax year needed.

Go to this website for the prior year (2013 - 2015) desktop editions - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/

Prior year tax returns can only be printed and mailed, they cannot be e-filed.  When mailing multiple tax years use separate envelopes for each tax year.

For 2016,  Do you need to do a state return?
There is also The Turbo Tax Freedom website which is free for federal and state.  And has more forms than the Federal Free Edition, like the full 1040 return and Schedules A, B, C , D, E, F, EIC, H, K-1, SE,  etc.

To qualify for the Tax Freedom website  you just need to meet one of these 3 things
AGI $33,000 or less
Active duty military with AGI of $64,000 or less
OR qualify for EIC (earned income credit.)

In order to use the Tax Freedom Edition, you have to start it at a special website:
<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://turbotax.intuit.com/taxfreedom/">http://turbotax.intuit.com/taxfreedom/</a>

When you get to Tax Freedom use the link to "I Qualify, Start Now" at the bottom instead of the sign in link. And you have to create a new account, if you use the same account info it will take you back to Turbo Tax.

How to switch to the Tax Freedom edition
