Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Yes, I looked at my package from last year and there was a 16 digit license code.

 

I am concerned that the one I bought this year has been opened.  It seems like it should be shrink wrapped.  But maybe it is not supposed to be.  When you open the card on the inside there is a tear off cardboard perferated strip that says "Tear here for product and installation instructions."  That has not been removed so it appears to be sealed.

 

But on the back, the numbers and QR code I referred to above under that little open panel on the back were exposed when I received it.  And it looks like there was a little cover on that panel that was removed before I  received it.  I am concerned someone else had access to that and it could be a security risk for me of some kind.  Not sure why that panel is removed and if you are supposed to be able to open this package like a greeting card or if it should be sealed.

 

The only thing that is sealed on this is that little tear off strip on the inside.  There are no other seals on the package.

 

I have not yet opened that tear off strip as I am hoping to get an answer to these questions first before doing anything else.
