You have to export the data to QuickBooks desktop first.

How is this a valid answer?  The link does not explain how to export quickbooks online, it does not explain if you have to BUY yet another product just to turn around and load it in Turbotax, it did not explain anything.

First of all,  This is a new forum layout. Some posts that have June 2019 dates are really older posts from the old forum that got moved over. So they might be for prior years and not current info and the links are old.  When they migrated over the dates got changed to June 2019. And the screen shots got deleted.

If you need to move your QuickBooks data from QuickBooks online to the QuickBooks Desktop program you need to ask that over in the QuickBooks forum.

Go over to the QuickBooks forum here…

The purpose of using quickbooks online is so that we don't need to purchase quickbooks for desktop.  We need to be able to import directly from the online quickbooks to thhe turbotax business for the LLC.  GRRRRR

QuickBooks Online data must first be exported to QuickBooks Desktop before it can be imported into TurboTax Business. Refer to QuickBooks Online supportfor help (also see the export limitations).

You can only import Quickbooks to Turbo Tax Business if Quickbooks is installed on the same Windows computer.  So you can not import from QuickBooks Online or QuickBooks for Mac.

BUT I did find this..........

Please see this information found on the Quickbooks website answered by a Quickbooks employee, you can transfer by using their trial version: Quickbooks Transfer

Importing data from QBO to TurboTax can be done by converting the data to QuickBooks Desktop. You need to download a trial version of the program to start the export and import process using Internet Explorer.
