Go to this TurboTax website to purchase and download one of the 2023 desktop editions for either a Windows or Mac operating system - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/cd-download/

If you need to start 2023 or prior you can buy the Desktop download here,

TurboTax 2022 Prior Year Tax Prep - File Past Years' Taxes

You will need a full Windows or Mac to install it on.

 

If you have a simple return and want to file for free you can fill out the forms by hand.  Here are some basic forms.....

 

Here is the 2023 1040 return

or if you want bigger type use 1040SR for Seniors,

https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-prior/f1040s3--2023.pdf

 

 

Don’t forget your state.  And you will have to print and mail your returns.  So be sure to attach copies of your W2s and any 1099s that have withholding on them.  You have to mail federal and state in separate envelopes because they go to different places.  Get a tracking number from the post office when you mail them for proof of filing.

 

Then when you file for 2024 you need to enter 0 for the 2023 AGI since you are filing 2023 late.

You can purchase the CD/download from TurboTax or from a variety of retailers such as Amazon, Costco, Walmart, Target, Sam's Club, Best Buy, Staples, etc. etc. etc.

Many retailers offer discounts on the CD/download, but if you purchase from a retailer, make sure you use a reputable, known retailer.  Do not trust unknown retailers with offers that sound too cheap to be true.

 

This link Where can I obtain authentic TurboTax software? has a list of authorized TurboTax resellers.

 

When you use desktop software, there is an additional fee to e-file a state return.  You can avoid that fee if you print, sign and mail the state return.  The state e-file fee is $20 and increases to $25 in March.
