IRS 2018 Efile deadline is November 17 2019. Does Turbotax allow Refund filers to efile until the IRS deadline?

@amituserid 

You cannot e-file now from desktop either. Print it, sign it, and mail it.

@amituserid If you  need to see for yourself if you can e-file, go ahead and try it.  Go through the file section in desktop and click the command to e-file.  Then wait and see if it goes through.  When you check your e-file status, and see that it has not gone through, then you can still print, sign and mail it.

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 and/or your state received the return.

 

If you are getting a refund, there is no penalty for filing late.  If you owe tax due, then file and pay the amount due as shown on the Form 1040, but expect a bill later from the IRS fo rthe penalty and interest you will owe.  Only the IRS will calculate this—TurboTax will not calculate it.
