How to Mail 2023 Return After E-File Issue?

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone knew how to mail 2023 returns. I tried to e-file last year but there was a problem with my SSN I had to get fixed and didn't manage to do that until after the e-filing deadline. I'm trying to get my file from TurboTax so I can mail it, but I can't find the option to download the prepared files and mail it for whatever reason? All it shows is the rejected e-filing and tells me to amend the e-filing. I'd appreciate the help! Thanks!!!

 You will be able to access the 2023 return you started by using the exact same account and user ID that you used when you started it.   But you can no longer use online software for any further changes.

 

 

 

Start a 2024  return online and enter some personal information  so that the menu on the left opens up and lets you access your past year returns.

 

Online tax preparation and e-filing for 2023 returns is now permanently closed.

  

Now it is too late to use online software or to e-file. If you have any changes/corrections at all to make to your 2023 return, you now have to complete it using desktop software, which you must download to a full PC or Mac  (not to a mobile device).Then you need to print, sign and mail it.

If you already paid for your online software you can ask customer support for a download of the desktop software.

If you are getting a refund, there is no penalty for filing late.  If you owe tax due, then file and pay the amount due as shown on the Form 1040, but expect a bill later from the IRS for the penalty and interest you will owe.  Only the IRS will calculate this—TurboTax will not calculate it.

 

 

When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s.  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.

How to Mail 2023 Return After E-File Issue?

I see this, but the options for file -> continue -> File by mail don't show up. I finish everything and only get the option to "Exit Turbotax".

You don't need to find a  "File by Mail".  The prior  year returns are saved online as a pdf with all the worksheets.   So you have to download the pdf file and then print the pages you need to mail.
