To file a prior year:
TurboTax Online is closed for filing prior years.

In order to prepare prior year tax returns, you need the respective TurboTax Desktop (Download/CD) for each year you are preparing.
Please see the following (TurboTax Desktop software is available for each of the three prior tax years (2014, 2015, 2016)):

To complete a prior year tax return using TurboTax you would need to purchase and download the prior year (2016) desktop editions from this website, https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/ as TurboTax Online is for the tax year 2017 only. You will also need to print and mail your return as e-file is only for the current tax year 2017.      

For additional information on completing your prior year(s) tax return, please see the TurboTax FAQ below:
