Helping some one with there taxes?

My grandfather Did not file his taxes for the money he made in 2008



I want to help him by using turbotaxs prior year software as he has all his paperwork etc.



However I need to know if I need to get the 2008 software or the 2009 software as the money he made in 2008 would of been filed in 2009.



Also all he needs to do is fill out the info in the prior year software and send it in yes ? does he need to fill out any special forms
you cannot e file an old return

if you are looking to purchase the program to use, for the year 2008 it would the tax program for that year

you will not be able to use the free efile system at www.irs.gov(thru the third party) on old returns

you more than likely will have to file manually, if you go to www.irs.gov you will find the forms for the old years, which you can complete and download for a copy to submit and one to keep

for money earned in 2008 you file a tax return for 2008 but it was required to be filed by 4/15/09
You have to use year-specific software.
You have to use the software for the tax year 2008. No special forms are required for late filing. Prior year returns cannot be e-filed; they must be filed by paper.
For money made in 2008 you need 2008 software.
