The TurboTax online accounts can only be used for one tax return per account and User ID. If you want to start another return using the online editions you must create a new account with a new User ID.

Looks like your are posting from the Online Premier version. Online is only good for 1 return per account. But you can use the same email address for 5 accounts. How to start another return in the Online version

Or go to the IRS Free File programs

Free File: Do your Federal Taxes for Free | Internal Revenue Service

The Desktop CD/Download program can do unlimited returns.You can move your Online file to the Desktop program and continue without paying for Online or needing to reenter your info. If you already paid for the Online version you can ask them for the Desktop program. And you can buy a lower version Desktop program. All the Desktop programs have the same forms. You just get more help and guidance in the higher versions.

You can buy the CD/Download here,

When you use Online TurboTax, you get one return per fee. Each return needs its own account and user ID. If you use the same account and user ID for a second return, you overwrite the first one and lose it forever.

When you use Desktop TurboTax, which you install from a CD or download to your own hard drive, you can prepare and e-file multiple returns for the cost of the software. You can e-file up to 5 Federal returns—more if you mail the additional ones. If you have multiple returns to prepare for family members, Desktop is more cost effective.

Desktop --unless you specifically buy federal Deluxe only from a retailer-- will include the software for one specific state. You can prepare as many returns for that state as the number of federal returns you prepare. E-filing state returns is an extra fee which can be avoided by printing and mailing the states. Additional--other--state software is an additional fee for the software.
