How do I save my data so I can finish later?

Online TurboTax autosaves your data.   Make sure you know how to access your account again using the same account and user ID and it will still be there next time you log in.

TurboTax Online automatically saves the information.  Once you log out the information is saved.

 

Your data should save automatically as you proceed through your return. Simply log out of TurboTax. When you log back in, the program will pick up where you left off.

I am a new user of turbotax online... Have a registered account.... But TT Online does not save my data when I sign out... I completed about 5 screens and signed out... When I logged back in only my name and birthday info had been saved.... WHY?

  You have to access your own account and/or  print it for yourself using exactly the same account and user ID that you used when you prepared the return.

Many people have multiple TT accounts and forget how to access them.  Log out of the account you are in now.

Or did you use the desktop version of TurboTax?  If so, the files are on your own hard drive or any backup device you used like a flash drive.
