in a reply to someone else's question there was a link posted to another intuit forum that stated
**Can I e-file prior-year individual returns?
Yes. You can generally e-file the currently due tax year and two prior years. Extension filings are only available for the currently due tax year.
**What about prior-year state returns?
Many states support e-filing the currently due tax year and two prior years, just like the IRS. Exceptions include Rhode Island and Maine. Rhode Island only allows e-filing of current-year returns. Maine allows e-filing for two prior years by individual taxpayers, but only supports the current year and one prior year for business returns. Check your state’s website for more details.
Which confuses me even more. So I am just trying to double double check because e-filing would have taken a rather big load off my shoulders right now.
We've had substantial property losses along with multiple life altering events in the last few years.
(As, I know, have many others) I don't currently have a printer. Or a car. In order to "print it, sign it in ink and mail it" I have to take the bus somewhere I can print it, usually I'd say the library but they have very limited hours and access right now so I would have to take time off work. After I get it printed, and signed in ink, its another trip on the bus to the post office. We've had high temps in the teens the last few days.
So, I was just REALLY hoping I could e-file today.
