Each tax return has to have its own account in TurboTax Online.    On the sign in page, you will need to select Create New Account and create a separate distinct user ID for your son.

Sorry if you bought the Desktop program and have a License Code and had to use it for the Online version  you only get 1 federal and state returns.  Online is only good for 1 return per account.    

 

You can start another return in TurboTax Online by:
Logging out if you are in your account
Choose what TurboTax Online product you want to use for the second return

Create your account screen
Set up a new login for the second return
Start working on the new return

"Offer includes one Tax Year 2025 federal return and one state tax return filed using the TurboTax Online"


If you used the Desktop program before you may notice several differences and not like the online version. It has less features and no Forms Mode. The Online versions don't have all the same forms so you might have to upgrade to a higher Online version. You can only do 1 return per account. Your return is only saved online so be sure to save both the .tax2025 data file and the pdf file to your computer when you are done. In case you need to amend in the future or if you need a copy to get a loan or something. You might not be able to access your online return when you need a copy.
