Can I file 2019 late with Turbo Tax? I am trying to file late 2019 taxes and can find zero answers. Can someone advise??

All I want to do is file 2019 even if I have to mail it in. How do I proceed?

Sorry 2019 is closed for online and Efiling.  2019 is now the prior year.  And you are too late to use the free service.

You now have to print and mail prior year returns.  Be sure to attach copies of your W2s and any 1099s that have withholding on them.  You have to mail federal and state in separate envelopes because they go to different places.  Get a tracking number from the post office when you mail them for proof of filing.

To do a prior year return you have to buy the Desktop program here,

You will need a full Windows or Mac to install it on.

If you want to file for free you can fill out the forms by hand.  Here are some basic forms.....

Here is the 2019 1040 return

Don’t forget your state.  And you will have to print and mail your returns.  So be sure to attach copies of your W2s and any 1099s that have withholding on them.  You have to mail federal and state in separate envelopes because they go to different places.  Get a tracking number from the post office when you mail them for proof of filing.

I filed 2019 taxes late as people who did my taxes did not have the Average Gross income.  I think it was turbo tax

The IRS requires your 2019 AGI to verify your identity for e-filing. If you're paper-filing your return, you won't need your AGI because those are manually processed. If you tried to enter "0" and were not successful at processing your return, you can ​​​​see the information here for steps to correct your AGI. If you can wait a few days then resubmit your tax return and see if you are successful at that time. If it doesn't work you will need to mail in your return.

@Eatarock   Do you have a question?  Did your efile reject?

When did you file 2019? If it was late in the year or you mailed it, try putting in 0 (zero) for the AGI. And see, https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/rejections/help/what-if-i-entered-the-correct-agi-and-i-m-still-ge...

If you can’t get it to efile you will have to print and mail it.
