Can I install TT Premier and TT Deluxe (via CD) on the same computer at the same time, or do I need to uninstall one before installing the other?

I already have a Turbo Tax  Federal + State program on my laptop.  I have several family members, one of which has earnings in three states.  If I purchase another Federal + State package, will I be able to use those two states on the same return??


No.   Just add another state to the program you have.    

Just start a new tax return and if the state is different it will ask you if you want to a purchase another state.

Missed my point!!!

Yes.  I can pay $45 to add a state to the program I have.  I would rather pay $50 to get five more e-files and a State!!  Can I add the State available with the new package to the program I already have running.  The State programs are not really that helpful and hardly worth an additional $45 each.

No.  That wont work.  You can't get another state or more efiles by buying another federal program.   And it shouldn't cost more than buying another whole version just to buy the second state.

 

5 efiles is an IRS limit.  You can't get more by buying another program.

No. you cannot install a second program and it will NOT allow 5 more e-files.   The 5 limit is an IRS limit regardless of how many CD's or downloads you purchase.    It intended to prevent paid preparers  to use the less expensive personally software rather than professional software to file multiple returns.

Unfortunate.  A return mailed in to the IRS during the extended 2020 filing season still has not been processed.  They can not even say if they have it.

You are asking a question on a thread that was created and answered two years ago.

 

If you are using the TurboTax desktop editions and need a second state that is not the free state you downloaded then click on Online at the top of the desktop program screen.  Click on Download State.

The additional state program is $45.

Is the answer below still accurate for Premier 2023?

@jrhambydad   You have added on to a very very old thread.  The answers are not current for 2023.  What is your question or problem?  You should start a brand new post.  Click on  Make a new post at the very bottom of this screen.
