The year on the forms must all match and go on software with the same year to follow the laws for that year.
If you have already filed a return on the wrong year and it has been accepted and the financials are settled, you need to file an amended return and use the correct forms for that year. You can NOT amend if the finances are not settled.
You need to file an original return for the year that you did not file. If you have a bill from the IRS, do the return immediately. You should also call the IRS to see where to mail your return or if they will take the fax. Each agent and department is a little different. The address to mail can vary depending on the substitute return they filed for you. You can NOT use the address in the normal directions.
