ddoes license fee same as renewal fee

[VolvoGirl]

What are you asking?  Each year you have to buy a  new program or use the online version.  If you use the Desktop program you can sign up for the Advantage membership which automatically renews the next  year program.  You get charged for the renewal in early November each year.   When you renew or buy the Desktop program you get a 1 6 digit license code.

 For the Online version you paid the fees when you file.   This year some stores are selling License Codes for the Online version in addition to License Codes for the Desktop program.  So you have to know which one you are buying.
