I used the search bar, but couldn't find anything recent that was relevant. I would appreciate any help, I'm pretty clueless on the subject.
To begin with, I am in no way worried about owing the government money. Every time I've previously filed my taxes I've received money back. On average I've made $12k-$15k a year and no one is claiming me as a dependent.
In the past I filed my taxes with TurboTax, but that was simple because I kept up to date with it and could request W-2s from my current employers very easily.
I started trying to file my taxes in 2016 but hit a roadblock because I couldn't get in contact with anyone from one of the jobs I had had in the last few years, and another place I worked at has since shut down.
I moved to the opposite corner of the country in 2015 so I can't walk into the place I used to work at, and I don't know how to proceed with the place that shut down. I can't even remember what year it was the last time I filed my taxes and don't know how to find that out. I tried to find out on the IRS website, but I need the last address I got my tax return mailed to. I've tried every previous address I've ever lived at, but none of them are letting me get the information I need.
Where do I start? Can I do them now or do I have to wait until April to submit my old returns? At this point I'm willing to spend one or two hundred dollars on a specialist who can help me through it. Would they be able to help me get my W-2s somehow? If I still needed to get my old W-2s myself I should just file them myself with TurboTax, right?
Any help would be very much appreciated, I just read that after 3 years of not filing your taxes the government doesn't owe you your refund anymore, so I want to get what I still can before it's too late. Thank you.
Edit: the last time I filed my taxes I was in Ohio, I'm currently in Arizona.
