Can previous year .tax files be imported into my online account? Looks like I have 2018 - 2015, but I have earlier .tax files I'd like to add.

If you mean returns that you prepared using desktop software, no, those files cannot be stored in your online TT account. Returns prepared using desktop software are stored locally on your own hard drive or any backup device you use like a flash drive. It is always a good idea to save them as pdf’s, and to print paper copies for your own records too.
