I bought Deluxe CD but just want to do taxes online. Can I do this without paying again ?

[VolvoGirl]

No.  Online is different than the Desktop program.  You have to pay again for Online separately.  Plus there are more features in the Desktop CD/Download program.  Like you get a free state program.  You can do more than 1 return.  You can see the actual forms.  And in Online you may have to use a higher version, online versions don't have the same forms.

In defense of Online: You can access it anywhere from any computer.

If you don't want the CD and want to use the Online version instead, you can try to return the CD to the store you bought it from.  Or we can tell you how to get a refund from TurboTax under the 60-day satisfaction guarantee..

Be aware that Online Deluxe cannot handle Schedules D,E,F, C (with expenses), or enter a K-1.    In the online version, a state return (if applicable) has an extra preparation fee.    The Deluxe CD you bought may or may not have a state program.  Deluxe CD's come in 2 versions--one that is Federal-only, and one that is combo Fed and State.
