I haven’t filed taxes in years because I only have had social security income but just realized I need to file for 2020

You will have to use one of the CD/Download (installed) products.

Online tax preparation is closed for the 2020 tax year.

To do a prior year return you have to buy the Desktop program here,

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

If you have a simple return and want to file for free you can fill out the forms by hand.  Here are some basic forms.....

Here is the 2020 1040 return

Don’t forget your state.  And you will have to print and mail your returns.  So 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.

You need to use a desktop (installed on a computer) product to file a 2020 return.
