I already have an intuit program and cannot see any way to activate the online version of the 2025 Deluxe version. Where do I key in the 16 digit activation code?

Please keep in mind that the code can only be used once per account. Using the code again will result in an error message. It can only be linked to one account. Additionally, TurboTax Online and TurboTax Desktop codes are not interchangeable.

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.
