I have been using TurboTax Home and Business (CD Version) since 2006.  Now I find out that you are no longer going to issue a version with the CD in 2024.  This presents a HUGE problem for me because I am UNABLE TO DOWNLOAD IT FROM THE INTERNET.  I live in rural North Carolina where the only internet available is EXTREMELY SLOW (1.2 mbps) and UNRELIABLE DSL.  What am I supposed to do?

As of 12/20/24, Looks like you can buy an install CD for $10 after you buy a License Code

Yes.   You will still have to go online to activate with the License Code and register.  And to update the program and to efile.

This is really annoying that we just can’t simply go to the store in 2025 & buy the CD, now I have to buy the downtown & wait about 2 weeks before I can even get started on my taxes, not cool TurboTax - I am very disappointed in you!!!

Why do you have to wait 2 weeks?  For what?  As soon as  you buy the program with a License code you can download it. 

 

If you have the 16 digit License Code.  How to get started with the Desktop program, install and activate it

I buy mine at Costco online.    I installed the program right away.
