I spoke with intuit customer support today and asked"if I e-file 5 returns with my current tt premiere first, and then upgrade, can i e-file 5 more returns with the upgrade" and was told Yes, that the upgrade would allow me 5 additional e-files. I then asked can i use the same email address, she checked with her reference, and told me that i could use the same email address for the additional 5. Don't want to spend the money on the upgrade if it's not going to allow me 5 more e-files, so need advice....

Sorry you got wrong info from support. Or either you or support didn't understand. You can't get more efiles that way. 5 efiles is an IRS limit. It's to prevent fraud and people filing fake returns. To do more you have to sign up as a ERO - Electronic Returns Originator and be an authorized E-file provider. https://www.irs.gov/e-file-providers/become-an-authorized-e-file-provider

The IRS only allows an individual to e-file up to 5 tax returns. You are able to e-file up to 5 tax returns with Turbo Tax CD/Download.

Even if i purchased another tt product, how would that give me 5 additional efiles? Do you mean any other tt product or specifically the professional version: I'm confused. What would be the criteria for purchasing any other tt product with the ability to e-file 5 additional returns? I do know that I can only efile 5 with the premiere that I purchased and I know that the 5 limit is set by the IRS, not tt and the same IRS rule/limit applies to and includes all other tax programs.

There are no limits on paper-filed returns. If you are interested in professional software, you would want to contact Intuit Pro Series for information on how to obtain that.
