It won't work that way. You can prepare as many as you want with a single CD, but the IRS efiling limit is 5. If some of the returns are simple, try TT Free Online or here:

Sorry, no. The 5 e-file limit is set by the IRS, not turbotax. Pick a few to file by mail, it will only add 1-2 weeks to the processing time.

I think it might might work if you install the separate CD on a different computer - not certain.
