I've used TT Premier for many years. Now I have a new computer...do I have to enter all the 2018 info MANUALLY?

Level 15

No. Just get the 2018 tax data file from the old computer and copy it to the new computer. The 2018 tax data file has a file extension of .tax2018. The data file will be in the TurboTax folder in the Documents directory.

Or if you used the online editions, donwload the tax data file from the 2018 online tax return.

To access your current or prior year tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the userID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and on the section Your tax returns & documents click on Show. Click on the Year and Click on Download .tax file
