Where did the "audit risk" meter go? I am a longtime user of Premiere Online version.

I am a long time user of TurboTax Premiere Online version and have enjoyed the "audit risk" meter tool that was included. Now I have to buy the CD version to get it and if I do that, then my past years' tax info cannot be imported from the online version that I have used. Please return the "audit risk" meter to the online version. By the way, I have ALWAYS purchased the optional "audit defense" plan along with my Premiere Online purchase.

Starting this year, the Audit Risk Meter is only available in the desktop products Deluxe and higher.  It is no longer a feature of the online products.  We've been telling TurboTax that a lot of online users miss it, so maybe they'll consider putting it back next year.

By the way, you can download a prior-year *.tax data file from your Online account and transfer it into a current year desktop return (CD/download).  So if you do move from the Online version to the desktop version in the future, you can still transfer in the prior-year data.
