I am filing 2023 taxes. Why forms not available on line to file?

I completed a summary of my 2023 taxes and the state taxes appeared now I'm being told forms not available and I cannot file on line. Why? What happened between last week and today?

TurboTax closed the online editions for tax year 2023 after October 2024.  

 

To complete and file a 2023 tax return using TurboTax you would need to purchase, download and install on a personal computer one of the 2023 desktop editions from this website - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/

 

A 2023 tax return can only be printed and mailed, it cannot be e-filed using TurboTax.

Did you enter 2023 into the Online version?  Online is only for 2024 now.  Better try to clear it out so it doesn't accidentally get filed as a 2024 return and you can use it for your real 2024 return.

To do a prior year return you have to buy the Desktop program here,

You will need a full Windows or Mac to install it on.

If you want to file for free you can fill out the forms by hand. Here are some basic forms…..

Here is the IRS 2023 Form 1040
https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-prior/f1040--2023.pdf


or if you want bigger type use 1040SR for Seniors,
https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-prior/f1040s--2023.pdf


And 2023 Instructions
https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-prior/i1040gi--2023.pdf


2023 Tax and EIC Tables
https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-prior/i1040tt--2023.pdf


Sch 1 : https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-prior/f1040s1--2023.pdf
Sch 2 : https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-prior/f1040s2--2023.pdf
Sch 3 : https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-prior/f1040s3--2023.pdf


Then when you do file 2024 enter 0 for the 2023 AGI since you are filing 2023 late.


You have to print and mail prior year returns. 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 received the return. Don’t forget state.
