If you are not using the same computer, you will have to share your login and password so that they can download TurboTax from your account.

You can install Turbo Tax on 5 computers YOU OWN. You would have to give them your online account info to activate the program. But they will not see your info and returns. The returns are only kept on the computer they were done on. They are not stored or saved on Turbo Tax online. They can still use their account to efile their own returns.


And the license has always been….you can install it on 5 computers YOU OWN. You are not suppose to share it. This year they are enforcing it.
