Yes it is very easy to do ... step 1 ... have the .tax2021 file on your hard drive and know where to find it.    Then step 2 ... choose an online program and when asked if you used TT in the prior year just say yes and follow the screen instructions.

For next year.....

You can transfer from the prior year on your computer into the Online version. You will need to have the .tax2021 file on your computer. If you used the Desktop program last year here’s How to switch and transfer from the Desktop program into the Online version........

Or come back next year and ask when you start the Online return.  BUT....If you used the Desktop program before you may notice several differences and not like the online version. It has less features and no Forms Mode. You can only do 1 return. Your return is only saved online so be sure to save both the .tax2021 data file and the pdf file to your computer when you are done. In case you need to amend in the future or if you need a copy to get a loan or something. You might not be able to access your online return when you need a copy.
