When I filed taxes for 2020 and 2021, I didn't ask the Turbo Tax program to prepare my city returns. Now I need it to do so. How can I go about this with Turbo Tax? My city is East Lansing (one that Turbo Tax does).

If you used online TurboTax to prepare your past year returns, you will need to use the downloaded desktop software now if you need to prepare city returns. That software can only be used on a full PC or Mac, not on any kind of mobile device. And the returns can only be filed by mail. E-filing is permanently closed for past years.

If you already paid for your online software you can ask customer support for a download of the desktop software.

They are available from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m. Pacific time Mon-Fri

TurboTax only prepares a few city or local tax returns as an extra step in your state return. For most local tax returns you are on your own. You may have to ask around amongst your neighbors, etc. to find out if you have a local tax and how to pay it. “Google “ local tax for your area. Call your city government, etc. Your only record of paying your local tax will be your own bank/credit card records
