When you use online TurboTax software you get one return per fee.

 

Each return needs its own email, account and user ID.   If you use the same account and user ID for a second return, the second one overwrites the first return and it is lost forever.

The TurboTax online editions can only be used for one tax return per account and User ID.  For another return using the online editions you would need to create a new account, a new User ID and a new email address.

 

The TurboTax desktop editions can used complete an unlimited number of tax returns and the there are 5 free federal e-files included.
