need to correct an file 2019 tax return

In error in never filed my 2019 return.  

when I went online to make corrections my 2019 return the file stated filed, me not realizing it need to show accepted.  I did not realize that they were never filed when I when to file my 2020 return. 

 

I have tried to download a file I can correct and mail to the IRS.  I understand I can no longer file online.

 

Please email me a file that I can make the corrections so I can file my 2019 return.  Or even better if you can remove my son as a dependent, my tax return  will be done.  I paid for my 2019 return and I need a file I can print and access on my chromebook.  Like i said I can get a print out of an old down load but cant make corrections because it is a PDF file and I need and ext file

 

My phone number is [phone number removed] I would prefer a call. or email [email address removed] 

 

Thank you,

Phyllis Spicer

Only 2021 tax can be filed online.

2018 to 2020 can now only be completed using the CD/download software installed on a Mac or Windows computer. The return must be printed, signed and mailed.

2018-2020 software can be purchased here:
https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/

See this TurboTax help article:

https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/prior-year-return/help/how-do-i-finish-a-prior-year-return-that-i-...

"How do I finish a prior-year return that I started in TurboTax Online?

If you started your 2018 - 2020 return in TurboTax Online but weren't able to file it before the shutdown, you can finish and paper-file it in the TurboTax download software for PC or Mac.

Start by purchasing and downloading the software and install it on your computer. If you're also filing a state, be sure to download and install the corresponding state program (PC instructions | Mac instructions).

1. Now sign in at TurboTax.com using the same login you used to prepare your prior-year return.
If you don't remember it, try account recovery. Still no luck? Then just start over in the TurboTax software you downloaded and skip the rest of these instructions.

2. Under Your tax returns & documents, select Download .tax file (not the PDF) for the prior year you want and save it to your computer.

3. Back in the CD/download software, select Find a Tax File, and then browse to the tax data file you downloaded in the previous step.

4. Select the file and click Open.

5 . You can now finish up in the software. Your return will need to be paper-filed, as e-filing prior years is no longer available."
