Hi, as you are installing the product, you will be asked for the registration number which you will find on the inside of the sleeve.

I hope that helps!

Looks like you might be in the online version.  

Sorry you can't apply the Desktop CD/Download program purchase to the Online version.  They are separate prices and work different.  You can move your online return to the Desktop program without paying for online so you don't need to start over.

 

You need to install the program on your computer and move your online return to the Desktop program.  To continue in the desktop version see this…….

After you get the program installed the first thing to do before you open your tax return .tax file 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).
