    If you missed filing for an extension, all you can do is file late. File as soon as you can to minimize penalties.

    You can still file your LLC tax return.  You can file your business return with TurboTax Business by using this link.

    Do you mean an extension for a 2023 tax return?

     

     

    You file it by mail.  E-filing is permanently closed for past year returns, but you can still print, sign and date it in ink, and mail it in.

     

    When you requested your extension you were supposed to pay your estimated tax due.  Did you enter the payment you made into your tax return?  Go to Federal>Deductions and Credits>Estimates and Other Taxes Paid>Other Income Taxes 

     

     

     You will be able to access the 2023 return you started by using the exact same account and user ID that you used when you started it.   But you can no longer use online software for any further changes.

     

     

     

    Start a 2024  return online and enter some personal information  so that the menu on the left opens up and lets you access your past year returns.

     

    Online tax preparation and e-filing for 2023 returns is now permanently closed.

      

    Now it is too late to use online software or to e-file. If you have any changes/corrections at all to make to your 2023 return, you now have to complete it using desktop software, which you must download to a full PC or Mac  (not to a mobile device).Then you need to print, sign and mail it.

    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 9p.m. Pacific time daily

    If you are getting a refund, there is no penalty for filing late.  If you owe tax due, then file and pay the amount due as shown on the Form 1040, but expect a bill later from the IRS for the penalty and interest you will owe.  Only the IRS will calculate this—TurboTax will not calculate it.

     

     

    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.

     

    Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses.  Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.
