Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You seem unsure whether you filed a tax return for 2023 (.."pretty sure last year..") and it seems you had a number of years during which you worked and did not file tax returns.   You are too late to get recovery rebate credits for the 2020 or 2021 stimulus checks.  If you had filed tax returns for those years in a timely manner, you could have received the checks for $1200, $600 and $1400.  The deadlines have passed to do that now.   If you owe tax due for any of those past years, the IRS still wants to be paid.   But it is too late to get refunds for any tax years earlier than 2022.  Do you need to file a 2022 return?   That can still be done using desktop download software.   Or you might need to seek help from a paid local tax prepare to help you sort out the potential mess you might have with the IRS.

Online preparation and e-filing for 2021, 2022, and  2023 is permanently closed.

Note:  The desktop software you need to prepare the prior year return must be installed/downloaded to a full PC or Mac.  It cannot be used on a mobile device.

When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s.  Use a mailing service that will track it, such as certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.

 

Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses.  Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.
