You cannot file your family member's taxes from your own...

You cannot file your family member's taxes from your own account. You have to create a new account for them and report their information under their new account.

See instructions:

Sign out of TurboTax Online.

Select the TurboTax Online product you want to use for the second return and proceed.

On the Create your account screen, set up a new login for the second return.

o You can reuse your email address if you want to receive e-file notifications for the second return.

o Up to 5 accounts can be tied to the same email address.

After you've created the new account, you can start working on the second return.

Tip: If you're preparing multiple returns for family members, it's more economical to switch to the TurboTax CD/Download software, which lets you e-file up to 5 federal returns at no additional cost. More info

I'm trying to create a new account to prepare my son's taxes and it's locked me out and won't let me go forward. I have been a TurboTax member for many, many years and have always used your program, however, this year the disc I purchased is not adaptable to my current computer system any longer. I prepared my taxes yesterday and am trying to do my son's. Please HELP me.

I know that, but it won't allow me to create his account. He uses my email address.

Log out of Turbo Tax and clear your cache and cookies. And I would reboot your computer.
