I didn't file my taxes last year and made over the $4,000 it takes to earn the earned income credit. Can I file it this year?

How do I go about filing for my 2015 taxes? Will I get penalized for not filing my 2015 taxes this year?

If you are due a refund, then you will not be penalized for filing your 2015 taxes late. However, if you are due a refund, you only have 3 years to claim it so I would file your 2015 return.

You can file your 2015 return using the TurboTax products at the link below. Note: you can only print and mail those returns in. You cannot e-file prior years' returns.
