How can I access my Turbo Tax file on two different computers?

I have it on both computers, but one file is up to date, the other is not. How can I access the up to date file from both computers.

you are working on two copies at once, which is not a good idea.

so delete one of those copies.

posts on this forum have indicated that networking of files does not work well with TurboTax, for whatever reason.

@NeilV

as far as I know, networking works, if you set it up correctly. It's not a new thing.

Are you using the Desktop installed program or the Online web version? For the Desktop program the return is only on that computer. To see it on the other computer you have to move/copy the .tax2022 file to the other computer. But you can get messed up moving it back and forth.

See this article on how to move your tax return to another computer…….
