There is no trial version to our software.
The downloaded software is the same as the online version, however it would allow you to file up to 5 federal returns.
The Online web version is only good for one account and one return. You only can see the forms after you pay and download the pdf.
DESKTOP
Desktop vs Online
Desktop you buy and install the program which can do unlimited returns. The returns are only saved on your computer and can not be accessed from anywhere else. And not saved at Turbo Tax. So Be sure to save Frequently and make backups. You get 5 federal efile for free. In Deluxe and above you get 1 state PROGRAM download to prepare unlimited state returns (in that state). Each state return including the first one is 19.99/24.99 to efile or you can print and mail the state for free.
Desktop also has many other features and advantages over the Online version. You can do more than 1 return. You can see and enter into the actual forms. And you can use a lower version because all the Desktop versions have ALL the same forms. You just get more help in the higher versions. In online you have to upgrade to enter certain kinds of income. Like Premier for investments.
You can buy the Desktop CD/Download program now here,

Thanks for your detailed info. I tried buying the download version, but after I fill in my billing address and my credit card info, and hit "continue", then nothing happens. It get stuck on the same page, and does not move to next page. I tried another credit card, and changed from google chrome to internet explorer, but same things happened. I cleared cookies, but still no luck. Is there something wrong with TurboTax payment page?
Thanks
