I already paid Intuit for 2023 Turbo Tax back in Nov 2023. Why do I now have to pay again?

Did you pay for the CD/download in November?

We see people get confused and they keep logging in to online software which will require them to pay at the end.   You need to use the desktop software.   One way to tell if you are using the right software---your tool bar.   Online software has the toolbar in a black vertical column on the left side of the screen.   Desktop software has the tools up on the top of your TT screen.

You appear to be posting from online Deluxe software instead of the desktop CD/download software that the license code is for.  If you are using online, you are using the wrong program.  You need to switch to the desktop software to get what you paid for.  You have to download it, update it and open it up from your own hard drive to use it.

Sounds like you bought the Desktop program but used the Online version.

Sorry you can't apply the Desktop CD/Download program purchase to the Online version.  They are separate prices and work different.  You have to pay for online and try to get a refund for the Desktop program.  Or switch to your program.

If you already started in the Online version you can move your return to the Desktop program even without paying for Online. 

First download the .tax file from the Online version,
