We wouldn't know about that here...we only do taxes here and have nothing to do with employee paychecks.  (And we are the entire world, not Intuit)   I suspect you have to create a new account UserID and Pwd for that site, as I doubt it is linked to the tax accounts password system. ....but that's just a suspicion on my part.   But, might be far better for you to  talk to your Payroll department, and have them help you online at work, one-on-one, to learn how to set up access properly there....then you can do it properly at home. ...

You can buy the desktop/download software for that year, and install that software on your home computer (Windows or MAC only) to prepare them and file them....but for a prior year, you must print them out and take to the Post office yourself.  Don't forget to sign/date, and attach any W-2 forms and other tax forms that show any Federal withholding (and if yo have a State to file , the State forms go to a state tax department address and not to the IRS)   https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/ ...

Yes...Make sure you write down your exact UserID and Password...you will forget, or get confused as to what you UserID was.. ... View more

If you are using the "Online" tax software, you must create and entirely separate account (UserID and Pwd must be different).      IF you attempt to do it in the same Online account, then you will irreversibly destroy whatever data is already in there, and make it unrecoverable. ___________________ Only the desktop software allows you to prepare multiple tax files from the same software set for yoru family members......no matter what, only 5 can be e-filed..and any extras needed would require you to mail-filie them on paper.   ...

IF you go to the "Deductions & Credits" page, there is a Your Home section.   Expanding that section, you can put it in one of two different places...But not both     1)  IF you have a Mortgage, and are paying into escrow for it, and the Mortgage company pays it...then it is a part of your Form 1098, and the RE taxes they payed out is entered as part of the sequence of questions under "Mortgage Interest, Refinancing, and Insurance" 2)  If you pay your RealEstate taxes yourself taxes , then you enter them on the "Property Taxes" entry line.   ...

IF TurboTax does the penalty/interest calculation for you, it can only be an approximate value to get you close.   The penalty and interest that the IRS assesses depends on exactly what date the IRS posts the payment you make, and TTX cannot know that at the time you prepare and submit your tax file.  Thus, there is commonly an additional bill from the IRS.  No particular fault anywhere, just a normal complication that no one can do much about.     ...

Online software and Desktop (CD) software are entirely separate preparation systems.  Prices are quite a bit different too.   No way to put in a serial# or purchase code from a CD to use the Online software either..   Most helpers here in the community, consider the Desktop (CD) version to be far superior to Online...but a lot depends on the complexity of each person's situation. ...

Print out / save your tax file to a PDF.....but use one of the  all forms and calculation worksheets selections.   Then look for the Social Security Benefits Worksheet........check the calculations there to see what TTX may be including that you aren't in your manual calculations.      Lots of times, people forget to add-in their tax-exempt interest from Municipal bonds....but could be something else. ...
