Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

Is it possible to start my Turbo Tax account and fill out all my 2019 tax info and then pay instead of paying beforehand?

I'm not seeing an option to continue on for free once I clicked on "Start my 2019 return"

Sorry, Online is now closed for new returns.  To do a 2019 year return you have to buy the Desktop program here,

https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/

You will need a full Windows or Mac to install it on.

 

Did you start it online!  How to finish a prior year online return

If you paid for the Online version you can ask support to give you the Desktop download.  Contact Customer Service 5am-5pm Pacific M-F

You now have to print and mail prior year returns.  Be sure to attach copies of your W2s and any 1099s that have withholding on them.  You have to mail federal and state in separate envelopes because they go to different places.  Get a tracking number from the post office when you mail them for proof of filing.

 

If you want to file for free you can fill out the forms by hand.  Here are some basic forms.....

 

Here is the 2019 1040 return

The TurboTax online editions for tax year 2019 have closed.  The Free edition is only available with TurboTax online.

 

To complete and file a 2019 tax return using TurboTax you would need to purchase, download and install on a personal computer one of the 2019 desktop editions from this website - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/

 

A 2019 tax return can only be printed and mailed, it cannot be e-filed.

 

You can get free forms, schedules and instructions for a federal tax return at this IRS website - https://apps.irs.gov/app/picklist/list/priorFormPublication.html
