I have Turbo Tax 2017 on my laptop, can I use it to file my 2018 return?

I paid for and installed 2017, it ran an update when I opened it, but it still thinks that I'm trying to file for 2017 instead of 2018. Is there a way to use this program to file my return for 2018?


It is home & business edition.

No, you cannot use the 2017 version to file your 2018 taxes, unfortunately.  With the new tax reform TCJA, there are many changes have made to our previous tax law, by using the 2017 edition will not prepare a correct 2018 tax return.

I have TurboTax Business 2017, I need to file 2018 taxes. I guess your answer also applies for Business edition. What my options would be? Please advise.

Thank you!

You have to buy a new program each year.  You can buy 2018 Business here,
