I purchased the online turbotax but it turns out I need the download version because I have to edit a form. When I go to download, i have to buy it - how do I switch?

[NCperson]

why would you have to edit / overwride a document? that invaliates the guanentee....

what is the document / circumstance? 

if you purchased online, that means you have the completed tax return.  Have you filed?

If you have NOT filed the return yet:

Thanks - but when I go to download it's asking for my code as if I bought it, which I don't want to do since I already bought the online version. Need to overrwrite schedule se because I live overseas

You can move your Online file to the Desktop program and continue without paying for Online or needing to reenter your info.  If you already paid for the Online version you can ask them for the Desktop program.  

To continue in the desktop version see this…….

How do I save my TurboTax Online return as a tax data file?

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).
