Need to file 2020 and 2021 taxes?

Well in case you need to file prior years

 

Online is only good for the current year.   You can buy the last 3 years of Turbo Tax here,

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

 

How to prepare a prior year return

https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/using-turbotax/help/how-do-i-prepare-a-prior-year-tax-return/00/25...

 

You will have to print and mail in prior year returns.  And if you are doing more than 1 year, send each year in a separate envelope. Sometimes the IRS will just staple all the sheets together and miss a second return.  Be sure to attach copies of your W2s and any 1099s that have withholding on them.  Don't forget state.  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.

 

Or if you want to file for free and have a simple return you can get the blank forms from the IRS and fill them in by hand.  I have a list of some of the basic ones I can post direct links to.

Need to file 2020 and 2021 taxes?

To complete and file a 2020 and 2021 tax return using TurboTax you would need to purchase, download and install on a personal computer one of the desktop editions for each tax year required from this website - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/

 

A prior year tax return can only be printed and mailed, it cannot be e-filed using TurboTax.

Use a separate envelope for each tax year if mailing multiple years.
