Hello, I just filed my 2025 taxes and they were accepted. However, the system still says they were rejected from before and I cannot start my 2024 taxes.

My 2024 taxes have not been filed. I was working with an expert but I could not schedule a time that worked for me so I went to file myself. I still need to file 2024 taxes.

To complete and file a 2024 tax return using TurboTax you would need to purchase, download and install on a personal computer one of the 2024 desktop editions from this website - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/

A 2024 tax return can only be printed and mailed, it cannot be e-filed using TurboTax.

Okay, I completed the 2024 tax return for mailing through the Turbo Tax 2024 application. I see that I am unable to e-file the 2024 filing. I downloaded the file to mail. In the instructions, it says to attach any documents and to make sure that you sign. Wasn't this already completed in the process and I can just mail the downloaded file to the address as is?

 When you file a tax return by mail---which you must do with your 2024 return  now--- you have to physically sign and date the return in ink, and you need to attach paper copies of your W-2's and any 1099's that show income tax withheld.  

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.
