Can I e-file Federal & CA returns for two people using my TurboTax Deluxe?

Sister's returns are ready to file. Mine (TurboTax is registered to me) are not ready yet.

Get your taxes done using TurboTax

No, not in the same onilne account.   Each online account can only handle 1 Federal return per tax year.  If you try to prepare a second return in the same account, it will overwrite the first one, making it unrecoverable.

A separate account (separate User ID) is necessary for each Online return, and a separate fee (if applicable).   You can use the same email address in the Account Settings (Profile), if desired for notification purposes, but each User ID must be unique.  A User ID does not have to be an email address.

For future reference, the desktop products (CD/download) can handle multiple returns.

Please see this FAQ on how to start a second Online return:
