If you are using TurboTax online to file your tax return, you are filing a 2019 tax return regardless of the information you entered being 2018 information.  Only current year (2019) returns can be electronically filed using TurboTax online.

 

In order to file a 2018 tax return using TurboTax, you must purchase and download the TurboTax software.  Then, the return must be mailed to the IRS for processing.  

 

See the following TurboTax article for more details:  How do I prepare a prior year tax return?
