Use TurboTax for Windows Desktop to transfer last year's tax data file from H&R Block into this year's TurboTax software.  

  • TurboTax Online and TurboTax for Mac supports PDF transfers if anything other than TurboTax was used last year (H&R Block, an accountant or tax service etc.).
  • TurboTax Mobile and TurboTax Business do not support PDF transfers.

A data file transfer can only be used with TurboTax Desktop for Windows. If you are preparing your return using TurboTax Online you cannot use your datafile, you should use an electronic PDF file from last year's tax provider (as detailed above).

Hello! I am using the Windows download version on a laptop, not TurboTax on the Internet. I was only using this platform to ask what could be wrong. I think I read another user also trying was to import to TT windows from H and R Block data file. I imported my son's and daughter's files with no problem but not all patches. I waited to import mine because I was looking at whether I needed to amend 2016 and I did.
