I purchased a Premier CD, but also have a TurboTax online account. Can I link my CD program with my online account?

My historical returns and W-2 are saved to my TurboTax online account.  However, I purchased a Premier CD/download this year.  How can I link my CD/download program to my online account, or import from my online account?

No you can't link them.  But you can transfer from 2017 online to your Desktop program.

Transfer from Online into the Mac Desktop program.   Expand the 3rd blue link

One way is to start a 2018 Online return and transfer into that.  Then you can download the .tax2018 file from online and just OPEN it in the Desktop program.
