I'm trying to file my 2020 and 2021 taxes so that I can get the stimulus checks I never received because I was incarcerated during those 2 years

You need to complete the Recovery Rebate Credit section of the 2020 and 2021 tax returns if you were eligible for the Economic Impact Payments for tax year 2020 and 2021.

 

To complete and file a 2020 and 2021 tax return using TurboTax you would need to purchase, download and install on a personal computer one of the desktop editions for each tax year required from this website - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/

 

A 2020 and 2021 tax return can only be printed and mailed, they cannot be e-filed using TurboTax.

Use a separate envelope for each tax year being mailed.
