Hi Molly,
Yes he can still file a 2011 tax return and indicate that his wife was deceased. He should file he may be entitled to a tax refund especially if he is eligible for tax credits like the earned income tax credit. He can go online and download prior year’s software. After his 2011 is completed he can also prepare his 2012.
There probably would not be a penalty if he was under the gross income requirement.
Here is the link to download previous tax years

I hope this helps you.
Thank you,

My friend did not file taxes in 2011 because was told he was under the gross income amount required for filing. even though, there were 1099′s involved, should he have filed? he also had been filing jointly with his wife that was deceased in 2011..now he is having trouble getting his taxes filed for 2012, should he go back and file 2011 and would there be a penalty??

Hi Roscoe,
I am so sorry that you lost some of your data. TurboTax Online has to shut down in conjunction with the IRS since the IRS stops accepting e-filed returns at that time, because they have to process 2011 extended returns and get ready for the 2012 tax season. You can download our 2011 software and finish your tax return. Here is the link http://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products.jsp

I did not realize Turbo Tax online would shut down on or just after the 15th of Oct. I lost about half of the return. How best should I proceed? I am old and a very slow typist.
