Which of these are you wanting to do?

 

Are you wanting to download a current 2020 tax data file that you've been working on in Online TurboTax and continue it in the 2020 desktop software on your computer?

 

Or are you wanting to download a *.tax2019 data file from Online TurboTax to transfer 2019 data into a new 2020 return in the desktop software?

You don't have to pay to download a *.tax2020 data file you started online.   The 2020 desktop software is already a paid product.  You don't have to pay again.     Here's how to download the current *.tax2020 data file to continue working on it in the 2020 desktop software.   See these 2 FAQs:
