To continue your state taxes please follow the steps below:

I am using TurboTax online and there is not a Welcome Home box.  Looks like I am forced to buy software to access a .tax file.  Is there anyway to start over?  I don't want to pay to get the software.  Thank you

The TurboTax online editions for tax year 2019 have closed.

If you used the TurboTax online editions for the 2019 tax return you will need to download the tax data file from the online account to your computer.  You will need to install the 2019 TurboTax software on your computer to open the 2019 tax data file so you can complete the 2019 tax return.

A 2019 can only be printed and mailed, it cannot be e-filed.

 

If you purchased one of the 2019 TurboTax online editions you can contact TurboTax support to have them push a 2019 desktop installation file to your download account at no charge - https://support.turbotax.intuit.com/contact/

 

To access your current or prior year online tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the userID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and on the section Your tax returns & documents click on Show.  Click on the Year and Click on Download .tax file
