Can I file my 2020 taxes now even though it is a year behind schedule? And how do I go about getting my agi in order to complete this process?

Due to unempoyment issues I didnt file. I am filing 2020 tax return now because I need to send a copy for my daughter's school funding application.

you don't need the 2019 AGI. Turbotax has permanently closed online preparation and e-filing of the 2020 return.

you would need to buy the CD or a download of the 2020 product for installation on a full PC or MAC. mobile phones won't work.

you can buy from Turbotax or other websites but be wary of sites that offer steep discounts.

@lres254054 you always have 3 years from the deadline to file to claim any refund owed to you.  If you owe, you always owe and ther is no deadline that absolves you of the tax.  

 

The deadline to submit a 2020 tax return to claim a refund is May 15, 2024.

You can no longer e-file a 2020 tax return.  It must be printed and mailed.  You might want to try doing it by hand and avoid the cost of software.
