Hi, 

my husband and I separated last year and he used to do taxes due to his business. When I tried to do my taxes filing married but separate for 2023 I found out that the taxes he did for 2022 weren’t filed correctly. I sent in my taxes for 2022 but I haven’t received any information. I filed for an extension for 2023 but it’s getting close and I still have yet to hear about my 2022 taxes. What can I do ?

    Hello Huertae12!

     

    Our advice will be that you file the your 2023 return before the extension deadline on October 15, 2024. The IRS looks at each year's taxes independent of each other. Therefore, wait for the IRS to respond to your 2022 separately from the 2023 return.

     

    I hope this is helpful.

    Thank you!

    awesome, do I need my 1040 or any information from 2022 to do my 2023 taxes ?

    You may need information from the 2022 return if any of the following apply to you:

    • you are depreciating assets for a business or rental
    • you have carryforwards
    • you received a state refund

    If you are preparing your return in TurboTax and are in the same account you prepared your 2022 return in, TurboTax will automatically carry forward any information that should be carried forward. Isn't that great!

     

    And as Ope mentioned, each year is looked at separately, so get that tax return filed before the deadline!

     

    I know how hard it is when you're taking on "new to you" tasks, especially when they might be a bit intimidating. Just know that we are here for you! We'll help you become a confident tax filer.
