Sorry, Online for prior years is closed now so you can not start a new 2019 or prior return or finish one. Online is only for 2020. Oct 15, was the last day to efile.  2019 is now the prior year. If you entered 2019 into the 2020 online version you should clear out your online return so you can use it for 2020.

You can only buy the download for prior years. You have to buy a separate program for each year. They only sell the last 3 years. You need a full Windows or Mac computer to install it on. Buy the download here

You have to print and mail prior year returns. 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 received the return. Don’t forget state.

Important! Mail Federal and State in separate envelopes and mail each year in separate envelopes.

If you are getting a refund, there is not a penalty for filing past the deadline. You have 3 years to file for a refund. If you owe taxes, the interest/penalties will be calculated by the IRS based on how much you owe and when they receive your return and payment. The IRS will bill you for this; it will not be calculated by TurboTax.

Thank you very much, I have now purchased the 2017 program.  

I cannot seem to find where I am to put my Canadian income (work, rental, a tiny bit of interest and a small amount of Employment Insurance - all paid in Canadian Funds to me while I lived and worked in Canada. 

I found on post that said to put employmnet under self employed, but that did not allow me to enter the income that I paid to Canada

Thank you VolovGirl

Do you need to do  Canada tax return?  Or a USA?
