I bought the basic Turbo Tax program, we are a family group of 5 (dad,mom,sister, sister and me) when it says 5 Federal E-files, is it telling me i can e-file my own taxes and those of my mom, dad and two sisters?

Thank you in advance.

Yes, you are correct. With TurboTax CD/Download, you can e-file up to 5 Federal returns.

Please read this TurboTax Help topic for more information.

I prepare taxes for free for approximately 15-20 people who cannot afford to have it done professionally. I would like to use Turbo Tax, but you only allow 5 EF unless I buy the expensive Pro Package.

Is there an alternative?

No. The e-filing of no more than 5 federal returns is mandated by the IRS. You can, however, prepare as many returns as you'd like, and print and mail the returns as opposed to e-filing them.

If you would like to e-file more than five returns you will need to register with the IRS as a professional tax preparer.
