Is there someone available to look at my unfiled 2016 taxes for me? I think I may have made a mistake.

I filed a last minute extension when it seemed I owe way more money than I was expecting and I thought I may have made an error somewhere.

No one can look at your tax return. TurboTax is not a CPA firm; TurboTax provides software for you to prepare a self-prepared tax return. Not sure what you mean by a "last minute" extension--the deadline for requesting an extension was April 18, 2017. An extension only gives you extra time to get your documents in order to file. It does not give you extra time to pay any tax due. You were supposed to pay the estimated tax due by the deadline of April 18, 2017.

If you can clarify where you think you may have a mistake on your return, someone will try to help you. If you have tax due, and have not paid anything yet, your interest and penalties are accruing.

One of the difficulties I had was related to money I earned working in Africa for an organization that is based in Massachusetts, while I live in Washington. What/how do I need to file this portion of my income?
