After you file

It is difficult to tell what you did.  No one "sent" you tax forms.  The online software is ONLY for a 2018 tax return.  If you used the current online software for income for a different year, then you made a big mistake.  It sounds like maybe you are just confused.  If your son filed a tax return "last year" that would have been a 2017 tax return--that would be filed in 2018.  The current tax returns being filed are for 2018--the tax year that ended on December 31, 2018.  NEXT year in 2020 you will be filing a 2019 tax return.

Are you just confused about what tax year you filed, or did you enter the wrong information onto those 2018 forms that you tried to file?  Was the federal return you prepared rejected?  If so, then the state return was not e-filed, either.
