You can e-file a 2023 tax return using TurboTax at any time on or before October 15, 2024.

What year? 2023? You can efile 2023 until Oct 15. Just file as normal.

If you mean you are trying to prepare a return for some other past tax year, you cannot use the online program. Online is only for 2023 returns; only a 2023 return can be e-filed. E-filing for 2023 will be open until October 15, 2024. If you do not owe or are getting a refund there is no penalty for filing past the April 15 deadline. If you owe tax due, the IRS will bill you for the late penalty and interest owed; it will not be calculated by TurboTax.

You cannot change the tax year. The current online program is for 2023 only. Only a 2023 return can be prepared online and only a 2023 return can be e-filed.

Online preparation and e-filing for 2020, 2021, and 2022 is permanently closed.

To file a return for a prior tax year

If you need to prepare a return for 2020, 2021, or 2022 you can purchase and download desktop software to do it, then print, sign, and mail the return(s)

You may also want to explore purchasing the software from various retailers such as Amazon, Costco, Best Buy, Walmart, Sam’s, etc.

Remember to prepare your state return as well—if you live in a state that has a state income tax.

When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s. Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.

Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses. Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.

Note: The desktop software you need to prepare the prior year return must be installed/downloaded to a full PC or Mac. It cannot be used on a mobile device.
