After you file
Yes you can either use the online version or buy the Desktop program. Many of us set up accounts and do test returns to help answer questions.
The Desktop program has several advantages over the online version. Desktop has a Forms Mode to see and enter into the actual forms and worksheets. It can do more than 1 return line for other people or test returns. And you can buy a lower version. All the Desktop programs have the same forms. You just get more help and guidance in the higher versions.
The online version is only good for 1 return and you may need to upgrade to a higher version to enter something. You can't enter directly into the forms or see them until you pay and print it out.
If you fill out 2019 to test and compare then you will have 2019 to transfer into 2020 next year.
