You should file your 2021 tax return even if you cannot pay the taxes owed.

After the tax return is filed go to the IRS website for payment agreements to set up a payment plan - https://www.irs.gov/payments/online-payment-agreement-application

When you have taxes owed, the program asks how you want to pay the taxes.  Use the option to pay the tax owed by mailing a check.  After you file the taxes do not send a check but apply for the payment plan.

You can file form 9465, Installment agreement request, with your taxes.   Turbotax will ask you if you want to file this form if you go to the FILE tab, as part of Payment/Refund info .
