Careful---- you are posting from online Premier---not from the CD/download.

 

You appear to be posting from online 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.

And when you sort out the software you are using, you can prepare and e-file up to five federal returns using the CD/download.  Make sure you name and save each return.   To start one for another person you go up to the tool bar and click File>New Return.

Yes, you can prepare as many returns as you want in TurboTax Desktop Deluxe.

 

However, you are limited to Efiling only five returns; any additional ones will need to be printed and mailed.
