My Turbo Tax disk that I just received isn't working. Can I download my 2020 software instead?

Starting back in 2013,  TurboTax Advantage members (in addition to the CD you ordered) you will also have access to the program as a download for 3 years for no extra charge. This change happened since many computers no longer have disk drives or many customers later lose the CD and required a download to be sent.

 

 

You must use the exact same User ID you used to purchase the software when signing onto your download account here - https://shop.turbotax.intuit.com/commerce/account/secure/login.jsp?pagecontext=download

If that link does not show your purchase for download then use this TurboTax website - https://shopping.turbotax.intuit.com/app/downloads/

Yes you can!  There should be a card in the CD case that says how to download it and you will need the 14 or 16 digit code from it to enter.
