I have already downloaded TurboTax2019. I prefer to do my tax work on my computer rather than online, but it appears I won't have that option for 2020 unless I purchase a new computer. This change by Intuit will effect many users.
It is not a change. It is due to the fact that to develop new Mac software (and TurboTax each year is a new product) the Apple development tools (supplied by Apple) must be used. Apple only supports 3 years of OS, currently OSX 10.13, 10.14 and 10.15. There simply is no way for a software company to develop new software for any Mac OS prior to 10.13 using the current Apple tools. It is Apple that does not support OSX 10.12 or earlier, not TurboTax.
For 2019, OSX 10.13 of later is required.
Next year, 2020, Apple will drop support for OSX 10.13 so 10.14 or later will be required.
