TurboTax accounts cannot be deleted nor can they be combined. Choose an account to keep using going forward, and just keep a record of how to access the "old" ones in case you need to do that someday.

You have to access your own account and/or print it for yourself using exactly the same account and user ID that you used when you prepared the return.

SAVE YOUR TAX RETURNS !
EVERY year before mid-October you should save a copy of your tax return as a pdf and print a copy of it for your records. That way you will not be searching online frantically when you need it for a lender, FAFSA forms, your next tax return, etc.

I NEED A COPY OF MY W-2 (or 1099)
W-2's come from employers. There is not a federal or national website that provides W-2’s.
TurboTax does not have a copy of your W-2—the Wage & Tax Statement—issued to you by your employer, (nor does TurboTax have copies of your 1099’s). You should always save those documents for your own records. You could ask the employer(s) for copies or you can get a copy from Social Security (for a fee of $62).
To get a copy of a W-2 from Social Security https://faq.ssa.gov/en-us/Topic/article/KA-02501
https://www.irs.gov/help-resources/tools-faqs/faqs-for-individuals/frequently-asked-tax-questions-answers/irs-procedures/transcript-or-copy-of-form-w-2/transcript-or-copy-of-form-w-2
If you saved a pdf of your completed tax return, the worksheets will show the W-2 information you entered, but not the actual W-2.
You can get a wage and income transcript from the IRS: It will not show the actual W-2, 1099’s, etc, but will show the income information the IRS received. It will not, however, show your state information. It will only show the federal information.

Or you can pay the IRS $30 for an actual copy of your tax return which will include copies of your W-2’s

If the question is, what do we do to be treated fairly, the answer is "see an attorney." There is no easy way now to deal with 20 years of ownership expenses.
If the question is, what do we do in 2025 to not make waves with the family, but get paid for our expenses, then you still need to see at least an accountant.
If the estate owned the home (and it was not owned by the siblings -- the title remained with the parents or the estate and it was never re-titled to each sibling as a co-owner) -- then the estate needs to file a tax return for 2025. The estate should list all expenses (from 2025 only, I'm afraid) against income from 2025. The estate should reimburse you for any taxes, fees, maintenance costs, etc. that you paid to maintain and sell the property. This reimbursement is tax-free. If you are paid extra as a management fee, that is taxable to you. The estate tax return would show the income (capital gains from sale of the property), the expenses, and issue a K-1 statement to each heir., along with each heir's proceeds after expenses. The estate would also issue you a 1099-MISC (I think) for your management fees, but not for reimbursements for estate expenses that you paid.
If you already issued checks to the other heirs without thinking about your expenses, it may be hard to claw that back without hurt feelings. You need to talk to an accountant, or an attorney or maybe a different attorney if the one you used didn't already help you with this.

I purchased 2024 Turbotax and Turbotax Business. They did not come with discs and required that I down load them from Turbotax. All the returns are stored on my Windows 10 computer and I need to download them to my new Windows 11 computer (which you required me to buy!!) Please advise how I can download these from Turbotax as your website doesn't provide this information.

It's important to clarify what you are talking about. Registration fees are only deductible if they count as a "state or local tax" and they must be based on the value of the car. For example, if the registration fee is $100 for everyone plus $1 per $1000 price of the car, and you buy a $35,000 car, your registration fee would be $135 but only $35 is considered a deductible state tax. This tax is only deductible in the year you pay it.
In addition, some states charge a personal property tax every year on the value of the cars you own. Again, this is a deductible state tax if it is based on the value of the car, but if the tax is calculated as a flat rate component plus a value component, only the value component is deductible. And again, this tax is deductible when you actually pay it.
If you paid one or both of these taxes in 2024, it would have to be included on your 2024 tax return.
Your deduction for state and local taxes are capped at $10,000, so if your taxes are already more than that, you won't get any benefit for adding the car fees and taxes.

For the last 20 years, my wife and I managed the property in Pennsylvania, left by her mother for the use of the siblings. This included real estate taxes, utilities and major physical repairs. For the first 4 years I requested the other siblings contribute a share towards the taxes, which they declined to do. At no time were any family members not given access to the property as needed. Last year we notified them that if no one was willing to take over responsibility and/or needed a place to live we were putting the house on the market. The house had no mortgage, and my mother in law died without a will. The family agreed to follow her wishes and keep the house so everyone would have a place to live if needed. Several family members did make use of that house for up to 3 years over this period. They all also signed off on letters of administration to give my wife legal responsibility for the estate. Now the house has sold and the total out of pocket over 20 years comes to @ $113,000. In filing the original estate tax the probate lawyer assigned $2000 to my wife as administor fees. As i understand it that fee is taxable as income. What about the reimbursement money? Is this money taxable to us as income? We have receipts for everything.

I am another TurboTax user for more than 15 years who will NOT be upgrading unnecessarily to Windows 11. I will not use an online version of TurboTax where I do not have control of my data. My Windows 10 install is stable with proper security in place. There is NO reason that TurboTax 2025 should not function with Windows 10 other than greed. Intuit/TurboTax, you are losing me and thousands of customers due to this stupid decision. Real bad business decision!!

How is your business set up? Is it a sole proprietor/self employment that you need to file on Schedule C in your personal tax return? Or is it a separate Business entity like a Partnership or LLC or corp or a Single Member LLC set up as an S corp? You need to file a separate business return for those. If you need to file Schedule C for self employment you need to amend your returns to add it.
