I paid for the desktop 2022 turbotax in January. I just finished completing my taxes online. Is there a way to import the online to the desktop?

Is it possible to import what I just entered online into the desktop version?  I didn't realize I wasn't working in the desktop version that I paid for.

YES!  You can download the .tax2022 data file without paying for Online and continue in the desktop version.


First save your return as a tax data file from Online

See how to switch to the Desktop program,

After you get the program reinstalled the first thing to do before you open your tax return is to update the program and install any state programs you had. Then open your file. So you first might need to start a fake return to be able to download the state program (go to FILE - NEW). Enter some basic information, then go to the state tab and download the state program. Then try to open your existing return, go to FILE - OPEN
