I want to file taxed for a family member for 2016?

For year 2016, can I file someone taxes, since I purchased the software?

Yes, if you have the 2016 desktop software and you have a family member who still needs to file a 2016 return it is fine to use the program to prepare their return.  It cannot be e-filed, since e-filing is closed for 2016 returns.  It has to be printed, signed and mailed.

When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s.  Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS and/or your state received the return.

under the terms of the license agreement for the software, you can't charge them.   If  you charge them, there also would be IRS issues.
