2017?   What?    You cannot put 2017 income on a 2024 income tax return.   Only 2024 information and 2024 income goes on a 2024 return.  The online software is only for 2024 returns---no other year.     It will probably be rejected.   When it rejects, take off the 2017 income and put only your 2024 income on the return.   

 

It is way too late to get a refund for a 2017 tax return.  That refund was forfeited a few years ago.   If you owe ta due for 2017 it is owed with late filing penalties and interest, though, and you can file a 2017 return on paper and mail it in with your payment.

Thank you, I really appreciate it. I called the customer service with Turbo tax and it was horrible.

The IRS stated I needed to file my 2017 taxes, so I was trying to complete it.

 

I hope it rejects soon because now I am nervous.

It is actually not likely that your return will be rejected as the system won't know which year's income you tried to submit.   There are a number of reasons for e-file rejects but this type of issue typically doesn't cause one, but would cause a notice later in the year.  Don't worry too much, though, your 2024 return can be fixed (or "amended").

If you 

You will likely need to amend your 2024 return.  Wait until the IRS fully processes the 2024 return sent with the data from 2017, and then return to TurboTax and follow these instructions to amend.  

TurboTax doesn't have an option available to assist you with the 2017 tax return.  I would recommend reaching out to someone in your area next week for assistance with the 2017 return.
