Sorry. Online is completely separate and different than the Desktop program. You can buy the CD or download from many places. Did you ask us? You can buy directly from Turbo Tax or online from Costco or Amazon, Walmart, Staples, etc. lots of places. If they don't have the CD in the store you can get it online. Where were you looking?
Did you notice the differences? Were you able to transfer from 2020 on your computer into the Online version? You could have. Here's some more info on Online. Be sure to save your return to your computer.
If you used the Desktop program before you may not like the online version. It has less features and no Forms Mode. You can only do 1 return. Your return is only saved online so be sure to save both the .tax2021 data file and the pdf file to your computer when you are done. In case you need to amend in the future or if you need a copy to get a loan or something. You might not be able to access your online return when you need a copy.
