Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Did you have a browser (any browser) open which might have been logged into your Intuit account? That would do it.


It really doesn't matter. If I install a piece of software, it has no business hunting around on my machine for what accounts it should be logging into. It should be asking me. The only exceptions to this are pieces of software that have a relatively high level of integration with my operating system that are logging into my, for example, Microsoft or Apple account with my consent.

 

I consider the matter closed. The answer is "TurboTax's documentation is wrong and the only people who might be able to fix Intuit's screw up are their customer service staff and documentation maintainers."
