TurboTax always opens an "empty" return when I start the program. I always have to "Open Recent Return" and close the newly created return. Waste of time! Since I have a return in progress, is there a way to always re-open that return and bypass the forced new return steps?
Thanks ~ Bill
Are you on Windows or Mac? For Windows where are you saving your return? It would be best under C:Documents/Turbo Tax, not on One Drive. I have Windows 11. When I open Turbo Tax it comes up with a box to Continue Your 2025 Return listing my 2 returns.
Or another way to open the program is to double click on the return ending in .tax2025. You could save it on your Desktop.
