How can I e-file my 2018 taxes

You cannot e-file your 2018 tax return with any version of TurboTax.

 

If you want to use TurboTax for the 2018 tax year, you will have to use a desktop version (one that is installed on a computer) and then print and mail the return.

online prep and e-filing of 2018 returns are closed. you need to purchase the desktop software for 2018 available at: 

https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/

or online. make sure you get the 2018 software because other years are available but each stands on its own.  be sure to follow TT filing instructions and mail your return using a method where you get proof of delivery.

Only some paid tax preparers have the ability to efile a 2018 return at this time ... so unless you go to one of them you will need to print, ink sign and mail in the return. 

 

To complete and file a 2018 tax return using TurboTax you will need to purchase, download and install on a personal computer one of the 2018 desktop editions from this website - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/

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.
