And,.....just so you will be aware.....you are too late to receive an income tax refund for a 2017 return. If you were getting a refund it has been forfeited. If you owe tax due, you will need to pay the amount due as shown on the tax return, but you can expect a bill from the IRS for the late penalty and interest owed. If you did not request an extension to file 2018, the same thing is true for that refund even if a refund is shown on the tax form. Tax due must be paid, and only the IRS or state will calculate what you owe, based on when they receive your late return and how much you paid when you finally filed and paid the tax due shown on the return.
It is not too late to receive a tax refund for 2019 or 2020. Your late returns can only be filed by mail. They cannot be e-filed.
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.
For state forms for your past year returns you may need to get/print the paper forms from your state.
