You can only file one return per account in TurboTax Online. You'll need to create another account for your son. Here is how:
-
Sign out of TurboTax Online.
-
Select the TurboTax Online product you want to use for the second return and proceed.
- On the Create your account screen, set up a new login 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.
- After you've created the new account, you can start working on the second return.
Tip: If you're preparing multiple returns for family
members, it's more economical to switch to the TurboTax CD/Download
software, which lets you e-file up to 5 federal returns at no additional
cost.
In accordance with IRS regulations, you can use the TurboTax
software to e-file up to five (5) federal tax returns. You can prepare
as many returns as you want, but only five can be e-filed.
For returns with multiple states, you can e-file up to three
(3) states per federal return; the rest must be paper-filed (which
probably isn't a big deal, as many nonresident state returns can't be
e-filed anyway).
Our license agreement doesn't allow the use of TurboTax for
commercial or professional tax preparation. If you need to e-file
multiple returns and you are a professional tax preparer, take a look at
our ProSeries or Lacerte software.
