Deluxe maximum 5 transmitted returns

[narrek]

I have completed 5 returns and transmitted them to the IRS on TurboTax deluxe.  They consist of me and my wife on a joint return, 4 adult children.  I also want to do my Mother's and sister's returns.  Can I get around the 5 maximum by using another computer?

I am NOT a professional tax preparer.

Thanks,

Narrek

No. The e-file limit is imposed by the IRS, not Intuit (TurboTax). 

You can. however, print and mail an unlimited number of returns.

What if you install another instance of Turbotax deluxe from another public IP address, does it allow you another 5?

In order to prepare more than five e-files, you need to become an authorized e-file provider and register as an ERO (Electronic Returns Originator) with the IRS.
