I missed the Oct deadline and went to work on my taxes only to find everything gone. Its telling me to upload my tax info from desktop software. So I purchase the Home and Business. But I only have an IPad to work from. When I open my download, it does nothing... just a black screen with a few words typed on it.. When I try to access my download thru the turbo tax website, its nowhere to be found... what am I doing wrong???

Sorry you can't install Turbo Tax on a iPad or mobile device. Only on a full windows or Mac computer. Either get a refund or find a computer you can install it on.

If you install the program you will need to download the .tax2021 file from the Online version. It may not be available for awhile as they switch over to 2022. How to fix or finish a prior year return you started online

what to do if you don't have access to a Windows or MAC to install the 2021 desktop app.

You may qualify for IRS Fee File but that means you have to start your return from scratch and complete it by 11/17 when even that shuts down. you won't be able to transfer the data from 2021 Free File to Turbotax for 2022.
