Well that didn't directly help since I'm not using online TurboTax, I don't trust it due to needing very basic Schedule C & I have heard too many stories of being up-graded & charged for higher level product I don't need.

 

But I did find a link from there that took me to what had been easier to find in previous years--just a link to e-file for extension w out opening an online return.

 

Also wish that they would include a way to e-file for extension from purchased, downloaded app, instead of just printing & mailing.
