Save returns in online account

Anonymous — Tue, 10 Feb 2026 10:08:56 GMT

Hello, I just bought a 2023 TurboTax CD, which requires an Intuit account to install the software in my computer. After I file the return, will the return be saved automatically online in my account? Thanks.

No. If you use the CD/download software your return will only be stored on your own hard drive or any back up device you use like a flash drive or external hard drive. It will not be stored online with TurboTax in a TT account. So, make sure you back it up.

No. The returns will be only on your computer.

For 2023 you need to sign in or create an account. See How to install with a License Code
