Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I am using Turbo Tax Premier installed on a Mac. When I was working on my 2021 tax return I had to open my 2020 Turbo Tax file. Since I did that every time I open my Mac the 2020 turbo tax file opens. How do I prevent this from happening ? Please help me since this is frustrating.


You cannot open a 2020 .tax file with the 2021 software only with the 2020 software - not possible.

 

Either up are running the 2020 software or you overwrote the 2020 .tax file with the 2021 data.

 

In any event, start the 2021 software then then use the top menu bar -> Open Tax File to locate and open the .tax2021 data file.
