Ms. Martin:
I'm not a TurboTax employee, but truly am sorry that you were late filing your state return this year. I "think" that you may receive a reminder for a federal return prepared using TurboTax Online if you started but didn't complete a return. It's doubtful that any such reminder would be coming for a state return in either platform. The Desktop platform (CD/Download) is totally independent of the internet, and no part of it is monitored by TurboTax.
That said, TurboTax is a self-prepared tax preparation program. Unless you utilize one of the assisted options, the completion and filing of the return(s) are fully the responsibility of the taxpayer.
I'm happy to share your suggestion with TurboTax Moderators for consideration. Thank you for your feedback.
