Unfortunately, the IRS shuts down acceptance electronic filing of annual forms on October 15th of every year for the Tax Year filing. For example, Tax Year 2022 deadline was October, 2023. You still can file a delayed Form 1040 tax return but must do it using paper forms, whether hand-written or computer-generated. If you are owed a tax refund you have three years from the normal deadline for filing to make that submittal or else the refund is lost.
Paper filing and submitted by postal mail can be done if you are doing a simple tax return as you can find 2022 tax forms at many stationary stores and even download forms from the IRS that you can fill in and print.
Otherwise, the usual and simplest answer is to purchase the Desktop Software (runs on Windows or MAC) from either Intuit or a reputable online source.
