Go to this TurboTax website to purchase and download the 2019 desktop software - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/cd-download/

I keep on going around in circles and getting dizzy. I'm used to the CD copy and this on-line crap has me frustrated, double billed and basically told "it is what it is" I'll be looking for more uswer friendly software, the way TT used to be from 1998 till this past tax year!!

To access your current or prior year online tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the User ID 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/print return (PDF)

If you used the desktop CD/Download editions installed on your computer, the only copy of your tax data file and any PDF's will be on the computer where the return was created.  TurboTax does not store online any returns completed using the desktop editions.

A 2019 tax return can only be printed and mailed.

Print, sign, date and mail your tax returns to the IRS and to your State.  Include with the returns any Forms W-2's and Form 1099's that have income taxes withheld.

Go to this IRS website for the address to mail the federal tax return - https://www.irs.gov/filing/where-to-file-paper-tax-returns-with-or-without-a-payment

Go to your state tax authority website for the address to mail the state tax return.

I have my original distribution disk and license code but my new laptop does not have a cd drive.

How can I download the USA version of turbotax premier 2019 so I can activate it with my license code?

@jssljp

We have created an easy-to-follow guide for the process of downloading and activating your software that you will find at this link: How to Activate TurboTax CD via Download.

@SusanY1  Just wondering.  Will that know what year to download like if you put in the 14 digit 2019 License Code?

Like the user wants 2019.

I NEED TO DOWNLOAD 2019 VERSION OF TURBO TO DO AN AMENDMENT FOR THE IRS

[JohnB5677]

If you have already filled your taxes the first step is to wait and see if it is Accepted or Rejected. 

• If it is Rejected you will be able to correct the rejection error and add your anything you want..
• If it is Accepted you will have to wait and file an amended tax return:
  • If you're getting a refund wait until the refund comes in.
  • If you owe money wait at least two weeks before filing the amended return.  (This is so that the IRS has time to process the original return.)

To amend a return 

Some quick ground rules:

1. Be sure the original return was filed and accepted.
2. DO NOT go back into the return or change anything before you start the amendment process.
3. Gather everything you need before you start.
4. Complete the entire amendment process before you log out.
5. Starting with 2020 tax returns you can E-File a 1040-X amended tax return.  All prior years must be printed and mailed.

 You can correct a return that you've already filed and had accepted.  Select the year that applies and use this guide to proceed.

Select your tax year for amending instructions:

• 2020
• 2019
• 2018
• 2017

For additional information please refer to  How to Amend

Hi,

I bought the CD version of the 2019 standard version and was happy to see this answer.  I want to download this version to a different computer at my covid location.

However when I went to enter the key - the key on by CD is 21 numbers and does not fit in the requested field.

Thanks

Charles
