I have someone that wants me to file their taxes for them. Can I do that as long as I have their permission?

You can prepare the other person's taxes with their permission.
However, unless you have a Power of Attorney that authorizes you to do it, you can not 'file' it for them. After reviewing their tax return that you prepared, the other person must 'sign' the tax return (if it is e-filed, there is an electronic 'signature' screen) before it can be filed.
As a side note, if you are paid for preparing the tax return, that causes a bunch of other problems and you may not be able to use TurboTax for that.
