No. One account, one login ID. Period.

You mention a "partner". Define that please. If you are referring to a joint 1040 return then there's no reason you can't share the login information with your spouse/partner.

If this is a business partner, then you can't use the online version of TurboTax to file a tax return for any business with more than one owner. You have to use the CD/Desktop version of TurboTax Business for that.

Adding a "user" is pointless. With online TurboTax you get one return per fee. As Carl already said, if you want to share your username and password with someone else, that is up to you.

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.
