I had an extension to file my 2016 taxes, but missed the Oct. 15 deadline. Now what do I do?

What if I didn't even start my return yet?

Online is only good for the current year 2017 so you have to buy the Desktop CD/Download program here https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/ 

 Or you can get the blank forms from the IRS and do them by hand. Either way you will have to print and mail prior year returns. And send each year in a separate envelope so the IRS doesn't miss any.
