I want to transfer online inputs to my computer version.

You can downlolad a copy of your TurboTax Online return to the CD/Download version on your computer by following these steps:

  1. Make sure are in your TurboTax online return.
  2. Click on My Account in the blue bar at the top of your screen and then click on Tools[See Screenshot #1, below.]
  3. In the Tools Center, under Other helpful links, click on Save your 2016 return to your computer. [Screenshot #2]

Depending on your browser settings, the .tax2016 file will probably be put in the Downloads folder on your computer.  It is a good idea to move the file from the Downloads folder to the default location for TurboTax files: 
C:\Users\[your name]\Documents\TurboTax    [You can just cut and paste the file.]
