Does purchasing a H&B 'state' apply to all PCs using the same TT H&B license code?

I plan to install Home & Biz on two Windows 10 desktop computers - one at home & one at work with both PCs using the same license code.  I will need two states (KS & MO).  I plan to use KS as the included 'free' state.  Then buy the second state online within TT.  

 

Will I have access to both states from each Windows 10 Desktop PC?  Perhaps the question is, "Do purchased state forms apply to the license code (just as the included free state forms are) or are they only accessible from the PC from which additional state forms were purchased?"

 

Thank you!!

Yes, you can use the same license code to install Turbo Tax on five different computers. Since the states are already in the Turbo Tax product, you don't need  license codes to install the states thus are accessible from each PC.

Great.  

 

I'll plan on a single purchase of a state to be available in each PC up to a limit of five.

 

Thank you for reply!

FYI ... if you will work on the same tax return in both places then you will need to be very careful to transfer and open only the most recent tax file every time.   Saving the file to a thumb drive to move it back and forth is a secure way to transfer it ... when you save the file add a date/time to the file name to make it easier to distinguish.
