If you are using TurboTax Online, Go to;

 

  1. Tax tools
  2. Tools
  3. Clear and Start over.

If using the Desktop software.

 

  1. Open your return
  2. On the landing page that appears, select start new return.

Do you want to start your return over or do a new return for someone else?

 

Online is only good for 1 return per account.  But you can use the same email address for 5 accounts.  You can start another return in TurboTax Online by:

  1. Logging out if you are in your account
  2. Choose what TurboTax Online product you want to use for the second return
  3. Create your account screen
  4. Set up a new login for the second return
  5. Start working on the new return

 

The Desktop program can do unlimited returns and efile 5.  You can buy the Desktop CD/Download program directly from Turbo Tax
