    Tax year 2020 is the current tax year being filed. 

    What tax year did you file?

    Are you using the TurboTax desktop editions installed on your personal computer or are you using the TurboTax online web-based editions?

     

    If you are using the TurboTax online editions those can only be used for tax year 2020.

     

    If you are using the TurboTax desktop editions you have to use the software for the tax year being filed.

    Use the 2019 TurboTax software to file a 2019 tax return and use the 2020 TurboTax software to file a 2020 tax return.
