No.  The Desktop program has many advantages over the Online version.   You can see and enter directly on the Forms.  You can do unlimited returns and efile 5 federal for fee.  State is $25 to efile.

 

Have you bought it yet?   How to get started with the Desktop program, install and activate it

You can install the Desktop program on 5 computers you own.

No---If you are using the  desktop download you have Forms mode and can look at any of your forms whenever you want to.  Are you sure you are using the download?

 

We see people get confused and they keep logging in to online software which will require them to pay at the end.   You need to use the desktop software.   One way to tell if you are using the right software---your tool bar.   Online software has the toolbar in a black vertical column on the left side of the screen.   Desktop software has the tools up on the top of your TT screen.

 

 

If you got confused and are using online by mistake:

 

You need to switch to the desktop software to get what you paid for.  You have to download it, update it and open it up from your own hard drive to use it.
