How or where does it say  "one user"?  Are you in Canada?  Canada has different versions like that.  The US versions shouldn't say that at all anywhere.  So I think you might have misread something.  Or Staples advertising is wrong.  Did you see it in the store or on the CD box?

Hey, I was tempted to say, "No, you have to provide the users." hehehehehe

I've seen that one, and the way the box is labeled is somewhat mis-leading. From what I read on the small print on the box, it's not limited to the number of users. It's limited to the number of network computers it can be run on simultaneously. You can install the program on 5 computers. But only two of the computers can have the same quickbooks file open at the same time, and be using it at the same time.
If password logins is selected, you can create all the users you want too. But only two can be logged into the program at any one time.

Looks to me like that "one user" wording is just part of the advertising title. I don't see those words on the box pictured.

And if you expand the full product details it does say 5 federal efiles.

The product title on staples is misleading, you can file up to 5 federal e-files for free. As Carl said below, there is not a specific multiple user edition of the product nor is there a single user edition.

Actually there is not such version as "multiple users" or anything of the such with the program.

If you are using the CD/Desktop version of the program that you physically install on your computer, you can use it to complete as many tax returns as you want.

If you are using the online version of the program, then you can only do one tax return per online account. Period. But you can create up to 5 accounts per-email address. So with the online version, one account, one return. It's also considerably more expensive to use the online version if you need to complete more than one tax return.

Well, technically that is true.  The software license is only for the purchaser of the software.  It can only be installed on the computers owned by the purchaser.  That does Not mean the software can only be used for one tax return.  The TurboTax desktop software can be used to create as many tax returns as needed.

True ... the program is licensed for only one user ... which means you cannot sell the program to others,  or let others use the program for free.  The License agreement says you are to install the program on computers that only you own thus the one user limitation.
