If you want to use TurboTax to prepare a 2020 return, you'll need to use 2020 desktop software (CD/download). You can purchase 2020 desktop software directly from TurboTax as a download at this page and install it on your computer:

You may be able to find the 2020 software cheaper at a reputable authorized retailer like Amazon, but even there be sure it is a legitimate authorized product from Intuit sold directly by Amazon itself, since there's no way to be sure all third-party sellers on Amazon are legitimate. Here's a list of authorized retailers:

Be aware there are "too-good-to-be true" Internet scam sites selling fake or pirated software. Only companies in the above FAQ are authorized for legit TurboTax downloads/CDs.

Oops! There was a typo above that said "2010" that was immediately corrected, so if you were emailed that answer, please disregard that typo. It was supposed to say "2020."

Also, here's some additional info that may help you. The 2020 return cannot be efiled. It has to be printed, signed, dated, and mailed. It's recommended to mail by a method that has tracking such as certified return receipt, Priority Mail, etc. If you have both Federal and state returns, you mail the Federal to the IRS and the state return to the state tax agency. Some states also require that some pages of your Federal return be enclosed with the state return. Consult the state's Filing Instructions page that you can view/print with the return.
