two versions of turbo tax on same desktop

Is it possible to load Premier, TurboTax, and Home & Business TurboTax on the same Desktop?   My objective is to obtain 5 more free e-files to complete filings for other family members.  If so, I am having difficulty loading Premier.   It only shows that I can have Home & Business.   I spent 2 hours on the phone with a TurboTax expert, and we failed to make Premier active with Home & Business on the same desktop.

You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.

No. You can only have one personal version of TurboTax installed.

No,  what you want is not possible.   First----the five federal e-file limit is an IRS limit, not a TurboTax limit, so you cannot get around it by downloading two versions of desktop software.   It is also not possible to put two versions of 2025 desktop software on the same computer.   Seek a refund for one of them, and if you have more than five federal returns to prepare and file, file the other ones by mail.

 

I find it interesting and somewhat disturbing that a CS "expert"  would not know that and that they wasted two hours of your time on it.

The IRS limits you to 5 e-files and that's an IRS limitation, not an Intuit (TurboTax) limitation.

I'm actually appalled and shocked that the "Expert" was unaware that this was not possible. Someone needs to be retrained.
