I have an LLC incorporated and received an s-corp designation in aug 2018, however not open for business until 2019. How do I file for 2018, or do I need to?

As you have elected to be taxed as a S-Corp, you have to file a tax return (form 1120S) even if the S-corp did not have any income or expense in 2018.

Please read this IRS document for more information:

To file form 1120S, you need to use TurboTax Business.
