The TurboTax online editions are only for tax year 2018.  The 2017 online editions closed after October 15, 2018.

To complete and file a 2017 tax return using TurboTax you will need to purchase, download and install on a personal computer one of the 2017 desktop editions from this website - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/

A 2017 tax return can only be printed, signed, dated and mailed, it cannot be e-filed.  You will need to include with the mailed tax return any forms W-2 and 1099 which have taxes withheld.

If the tax return is being filed for a tax refund there are no penalties for filing the return after the due date.
