Question

I just paid to file my 2018 taxes. I log in and when I click "start my 2018 return". It takes me right back to a page where it is showing the options to buy again

    What did you buy?  Did you buy the 2018 program download? You have to download and install it on your computer.  The Online versions are closed.

    The deadline for preparing or e-filing a 2018 return was on October 15, 2019.  You cannot use online TurboTax to prepare your 2018 return.   You can purchase desktop software and download it to a full PC or Mac.  You will not be able to e-file; your return must be printed, signed and mailed.

    When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s.  Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.

    I understand the online filing deadline has passed; but, I purchased to file 2018 tax returns. I did not see any disk being mailed to my home confirmation. Can I fill out the 2018 taxes online. I had chosen "switch to online" option, when I had made the purchase.
