Trying to file 2023 taxes (due to Hurricane Milton extension)!Turbo Tax keeps trying to file 2024 return. What do I do?

Sorry Online is only for 2024 now.  You have to use the Desktop program.

Sorry it's too,late to start a 2023 or prior online return or use the mobile app, either on Turbo Tax or the IRS. And too late to efile 2023.

To do a prior year return you have to buy the Desktop program here,

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,

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.

It’s too late to file prior-year tax returns on TurboTax Online.  You will have to purchase TurboTax Desktop and install it on your computer to prepare your 2023 tax return.  You should prepare 2023 before you prepare 2024.
