After you file

In conclusion:

I was able to purchase the 2016 TT Deluxe from:  https://oldsoftware.com/turbotax.html

I received it quickly, in  a sealed box.  

The program was easily registered...AND UPDATED flawlessly. Surprisingly, it even downloaded and updated the State tax file/forms.

I quickly opened my old 2016 file and saved it as a pdf.  YES?!

Thank you all for the information and encouragement.

SUCCESS!!
