Enter another tax return

When you first open turbotax you get an option to "continue" your return, or (if you look lower on the page) "start a new return" -- select start a new return

Enter another tax return

When you use Online TurboTax, you get one return per fee.  Each return needs its own account and user ID.   If you use the same account and user ID for a second return, you overwrite the first one and lose it forever.

Enter another tax return

To file an additional return with TurboTax Online you would have to start a new account, with a new user id and password, and you would have to pay separately for each one. If you use the same account and user ID for a second return, you overwrite the first one.

 When you use Desktop TurboTax, which you install from a CD or download to your own hard drive, you can prepare and e-file multiple returns for the cost of the software. Up to five can be e-filed. Additional returns must be printed and mailed.

 

If you still want to start another return in TurboTax Online, here’s what to do:

  1. Sign out of TurboTax Online
  2. Select the TurboTax Online product you want to use for the second return and proceed.
  3. On the Create your account screen, set up a new user ID for the second return
    • You can reuse your email address if you want to receive e-file notifications for the second return
    • Up to 5 accounts can be tied to the same email address
  4. After you've created the new account, you can start working on the second return
  5. If you can't create a new account because your web browser automatically signs you into your old account, you may need to clear your browser history, cache, and cookies
