How do I file taxes for 2023 ? Can I do it via turbotax online or via desktop ?

You cannot use Online TurboTax to prepare a 2023 return.   If using TurboTax, you would need to purchase 2023 desktop software.   The 2023 return cannot be efiled with TurboTax.  It will have to be printed, signed, dated, and postal mailed.

Here's where you can purchase 2023 desktop software directly from TurboTax:

you need the desktop version of Turbotax for 2023. You will not be able to e-file.

I followed the link, but didn't allow me to purchase the product. I started the 2023 tax return but it was never delivered to the IRS. The document are there but doesn't let me open or pay for it.

@user17520005216   Will this help?  You will need to download the .tax2023 file and switch to the Desktop program.

If you can't get the side menus to open up to access the prior year..... You need to start entering some basic Personal Info in 2024 for the side menu to open up. Just continue a little ways into 2024.
