Unfiled Tax Return Prep

I found this discussion here: https://proconnect.intuit.com/community/tax-return/help/can-prior-year-returns-be-e-filed-through-proconnect-tax-online/00/5243

Based on this, it appears that PTO can be used for prior year return prep. What I need to know is can be it be used for unfiled returns going back to 2014? If so, is price per return same as current year pricing?

Yes...but to be clear, you have to purchase 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, & 2019.  You can't use 2019 software to do a 2014 return.

Price per return is whatever the current year rate is. You can only e-file the current year and two prior years, so those old years will be paper (pdf) files.
Answers are easy. Questions are hard!

Thanks. Perhaps my question wasn’t clear. How many years back can I use PTO to file for my clients with unfiled returns? Paper is fine — just need to confirm I can use the software to file back to 2014 prior to purchasing. Thanks again.
