The TurboTax desktop editions for tax year 2021 should be available in mid-November.
You can sign up for Turbo Tax Advantage Plan so you get it as soon as it comes out but it might be too late to sign up for 2021.

Even though the program comes out sometime in November each year it is only a beta version which will not be fully operational until late January at the earliest (much later for some forms and the state programs). Efiling will not be open until late January at best so do not be in a rush to file.
If you are trying to do some tax planning then use the fully operational 2020 downloaded version instead.
This is my mini version of a tutorial that should be in the downloaded program:
Forms Mode lets you view and make changes to your tax forms "behind the scenes."
If you're adventurous, you can even prepare your return in Forms Mode, but we don't recommend it. You may miss obscure credits and deductions you qualify for, and you may forget to report things that will come back and haunt you later.
Forms Mode is exclusively available in the TurboTax CD/Download software. It is not available in TurboTax Online.
If you want to play around with different figures and tax scenarios without affecting your original return you can ….
It's always a good idea to make a backup copy of your tax data file, in case your original gets lost or corrupted. Here's how:
If you make changes to your original tax return file, repeat these steps to ensure your original and backup copies are in-synch.
AND save it as a PDF so you have access to a copy even if you don’t have the program still installed and operational :
AND protect the files :

You probably signed up for the TurboTax Advantage program where the software is sent to you in November for the new tax year. The $100 charge would be for the Premier desktop edition to be installed on a personal computer.
You would also have received an Order Confirmation email from TurboTax to the email address on file with TurboTax.
