@mbeukema000 - that is a "loaded" question....
once you buy the software, you can file up to 5 federal returns via efile for free; the rest can be paper filed (that is an IRS limitation not set by Turbo Tax)
To file the State for free, you can mail it or if you are filing a NY State return, it's free. Otherwise it's around $20 to efile a state return
However, a technical read of the EULA states:
- In addition to the license to Software in the Section A Terms, you agree that you may only: (i) install and use a copy of the Software on up to five (5) computers owned by you (at home or at work); (ii) use the Software only to prepare, print and/or electronically file your federal 2022 tax year returns and related 2022 state tax returns; and (iii) make one backup copy of the Software for your personal use as permitted under this license grant.
- You are not licensed or permitted under this EULA to do any of the following: (i) allow any other person to use the Software; (ii) rent, loan, resell, share, distribute or redistribute the original CD or a copy of the Software to any other person or entity; (iii) make the Software available on any file-sharing or application hosting service; (iv) electronically send the Software to any other person or company; (v) copy the printed materials or user documentation accompanying the Software other than as necessary to support the uses permitted above; (vi) use the Software for any commercial purpose (i.e., tax return preparation for a fee or other consideration); or (vii) use the Software to electronically file more than five (5) federal returns. Any person or company who received the Software through any of the foregoing prohibited methods, or through any method other than purchasing a license for this Software from Intuit or an Intuit authorized retailer, is not authorized to use such Software.
Why are you REALLY asking?
