Please follow the instructions in this TurboTax Help topic to prepare your 2018 tax return.
You don't have to file if you only get SS. It is not taxable. You I'll have a zero return. So don't buy the 2018 program. You can fill out 2018 for free since no income will be on it. Just enter the total SS in box 5a and 0 in box 5b.
Here is the IRS 2018 Form 1040

Or you can use the Free Edition but you cannot e-file a no taxable income tax return. It must be mail filed.
Can't use the Free Edition or Free File website for 2018. Only for current year 2019 returns.
Didn't notice that. Why would you want to file 2018 now if no income?
