I need help filing my Illinois state taxes from2015,and 2016. How do I go about filing them?

TurboTax does not have a stand alone state tax software program.  The Federal return needs to be completed first so that applicable information can then be transferred to a state return.  TurboTax Online will only work for the current tax year (2017), and not for prior tax years.  If you would like to use TurboTax products for any other tax year, you will need to purchase the Desktop version that you need and install it on your own computer for each year that you need to file.  Please find the following link that can help you do that:

You can obtain forms and instructions for free at the IL Dept. of Revenue website:
