If I buy and install Intuit tax software from Costco, can I sync it up with my previous annual tax filings on my existing Intuit account? (I'm trying to avoid having to input tax info from previous years!)

Yes you can transfer from 2022.  You only need to transfer from the last prior year.  

 

If you used the online version last year and need to transfer your info to this year's Desktop version there are 2 ways depending on what you have.  I see in my 2023 program there is a button to transfer from Online.

 

1.  If you saved the actual .tax2022 file (not just the pdf file) to your computer before online was shut down in Oct. then start a new return  and the very first thing you do is Transfer from .tax file.  You can only transfer at the very beginning.  You should be able to download the .tax  file from Online.  See this to download the .tax data file, the second section - I need my tax data file so I can amend.  Then the last section If you still want to download your .tax file

2.  If you didn't save the .tax  file to your computer or lost it,  there is a way to do it by starting a new current return in the Online version, transfer to that and then continue in the desktop version.  You won't have to pay for Online.   

 

First transfer into the Online version
