I have the CD's, however I'm not comfortable re-installing without some advise, as I don't want to alter my returns from previous years. A similar situation occurred to me a few years ago and my previous year return did not import into the current year installation. I don't recall exact circumstances, so there may have been different circumstances back then. From what I can see, my TurboTax File shows all my returns with the "type" of file indicating "TaxFile20XX". I much appreciate any help/advise you can provide.
The software program does not need to be installed on your computer to transfer 2017 info from a .tax2017 file into your 2018 tax return when you first begin the return. The tax file is totally separate from the program.
Thank you Texas Roger! Logic leaned that way, I just wanted to double check. Thanks again...Ohio Roger here!
I am experiencing a glitch, I think. I have used Turbo Tax Desktop software for at least 8 years in a row. I was reviewing 2017's return and realized that it did NOT import 2016's data. Is there a way to perform the import WITHOUT starting the 2017 return over again? I tried closing out of everything and restarting the software; no luck.
