If I have not filed my 2016 or 17 yet, ordering Cd to do, but want to file my 2018 efile now, would the agi be 0 ? or would I have to wait & do the prior yrs first?

Use zero as your 2017 AGI.  Even if you file those returns first the AGI will not be in the system for your 2018 return now.

To file a return for a prior tax year

 If you need to prepare a return for 2015, 2016, or 2017 you can purchase and download desktop software to do it, then print, sign,  and mail the return(s)

Remember to prepare your state return as well—if you live in a state that has a state income tax.

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.

Note:  The desktop software you need to prepare the prior year return must be installed/downloaded to a full PC or Mac.  It cannot be used on a mobile device.
