Non-Filer

Dear Turbo Tax:

 

I have not filed taxes in over 7 years at least since I have not been employed during these years. How do I start filing now to receive my stimulus checks. Please advise.

Enter your personal information, enter $1.00 income to e-file and use 0 for your AGI (which will be asked to e-file your return). 

 

You can also try using IRS FreeFile if that seems easier, but do not file twice.
