Can I file my 2015 and 2016 taxes using turbo tax? I'm only using the w2 forms I received from my employer. The employer is the same for both years. Thank you!

I want to file for both years, 2015 and 2016. This is my first time ever filing taxes.

You have to file each tax year separately.
Turbotax Online works only for current year (2016) taxes, and not for any other year.
If you want to use TurboTax for any other year you will need to purchase the Desktop Version for each year that you need to file. You can do that at this link:

You can download the Forms and Instructions free from the IRS web site at this link:

In any event, you have to file the return by mail. Turbotax does not support e-file of prior year returns. Tip: If you prepare multiple years of prior returns, mail each one to the IRS in a separate envelope to be sure that each one is recognized as a separate tax return.
