I filed my 16 year old's taxes under my account. I now have another 16 year old that I'd like to file using my account. How can I do this?

Online is only good for 1 return per account.  Don’t use your account or you will overwrite your return and it will be gone.  And you have to pay for each account separately so it might get expensive.   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 federal for free.  You can buy the Desktop Download program directly from Turbo Tax

TurboTax® 2021-2022 CD/Download Tax Software, Compare Desktop Tax Preparation

For 2025 You will need Windows 11 or Mac OS Sonoma 14 or later

If you are using the TurboTax online editions, they can only be used for one tax return per account and User ID.

You will need to create a new account with a new User ID to complete and file another tax return.  Go to this TurboTax website and click on Sign up in the upper right of the page to start a new account - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/online/file-your-own-taxes/

 

Note - If you completed your 16 year old's tax return on your account and you also completed your tax return first, then your return has been overwritten and is now gone.  You will need to create a new account for yourself or your fist 16 year old.
