My dad claimed me as a dependent in 2017 because I am still in school. He never told me I also had to file a return for myself until this year. He is not claiming me on 2018 taxes but my 2018 return got rejected because I did not file for 2017. So now I am behind on both years. How do I figure out where to send the 2017 taxes? I have filled them out and printed them but I am not finding an address to mail them in to.. Also is there a form I have to fill out before I mail everything in? I think I will owe about $500 before any late penalties.
Since you didn't file 2017 then put down 0 for the AGI to efile 2018. File each year separately. You can still efile 2018 until Oct 15. If you are getting a refund it's ok to file late. If you owe any penalty or interest the IRS will send you a bill.
The instruction sheet that prints with your return should say where to mail it. Where to mail federal paper returns

Don't forget your state. State goes to a different place.
And how did you prepare 2017? Online is only good for the current year 2018 so you would have to use the Desktop CD/Download program installed on a computer.

I used FreeTaxUSA to prepare the 2017 taxes.. Is this okay?
If 2018 taxes on Turbotax are already marked as printed how do you get it back to efile so I can make my AGI 0 and submit?
I have no idea. I only know Turbo Tax. I don't know if any other places let you do a prior year online. Does your return say 2017 at the top? Or 2018? Is it a 1040EZ or 1040A return?
It does say 2017 at the top and it says 1040 but I don't see an A or EZ behind it.. I am not sure about that
That's ok. There are 3 kinds of 1040 for 2017 and prior. 1040EZ, 1040A short form and the full 1040.
