TurboTax online and e-file for 2019 ended on Oct 15, 2020. 2019 (and earlier tax years) can now only be completed using the CD/download software installed on a Mac or Windows computer. The return must be printed, signed and mailed.

2017-2019 software can be purchased here:

If you used the 2017 program to complete the return and it is ready to mail in then save a PDF of the return, print, ink sign and mail them in.  

 

If you still need to complete or change the return then you need the 2017 downloaded program :

the deadline for filing unextended 2017 returns showing a refund was 4/15/2021. if extended 10/15/2021.

if unextended you can file but don't expect to get your refund because you are past the deadline.  on the other hand if you owe, the sooner you file and pay the less the penalties will be.
