I have completed 1 child's 2024 Taxes and would like to do the same for my 2nd child. Can I simply create a new submission with appropriate SS and tax info?

Are you able to submit several tax submissions with one Intuit Turbotax account?

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.

To file a separate return for your dependent you need to set up a new account.  Online is only good for one return per account.  You can use the same email address for 5 accounts.

 

You can start another return in TurboTax Online by:

  1. Logging out if you are in your account
  2. Choose what TurboTax Online product you want to use for the second return
  3. Create your account screen
  4. Set up a new login for the second return
  5. Start working on the new return

 

Be sure on their return they check the box that says they can be claimed on someone else’s return.  If their only income is W2 and under 14,600 they do not have to file a return except to get back any withholding taken out.
