Download vs online tax software comparison [thefinancebuff.com]
- Download Deluxe supports nearly everything that Premiere does, including investments, real estate, self-employment, etc. The marketing from Intuit is confusing here.
- When using download/desktop software, your data stays local, which is probably more secure (but make sure you have a backup!)
- Download includes 5 federal e-files and virtually unlimited printed returns.
- Downloaded state software allows preparation of state tax forms, but state e-file is an additional $20 per state. You can print and mail for virtually nothing. It is $40 to download the software for each additional state.
- Some states [thefinancebuff.com] allow free e-file on their dept of revenue website
- Online allows you to work from any device
- Online stores a copy of your tax return in the cloud for archival purposes and also next year's taxes
New this year - TurboTax licenses are tied to your Intuit account, making it a bit harder to share. You still can install on 5 PCs if you use the same Intuit account on each.

One major advantage of H&R Block & TurboTax, download or online, is that they support importing 1099 forms from banks and brokerages. While this is definitely useful and can save some time, you often have to enter your passwords in their software, which some people are not comfortable with. With 1099 investment income, you can often enter aggregate data [hrblock.com] and not list each trade individually, which makes this much less painful that you might think.
Privacy concerns
Tax prep companies are required by law to get your consent before they can share your personal information with 3rd parties. If you are concerned about this, I recommend reading the privacy policies and/or license agreements from each company. Of course, you can avoid this issue altogether by using downloaded desktop software where your data stays on your local computer only.

$64.99 has been the going price on Amazon from Dec-Feb. I bought in Jan and then again in Feb for family members. Looks like Amazon has increased the price since the yearly deadline is coming up. Maybe a better strategy for next year.

I have a $25 off $150 code that I can share with anyone who is interested.
I have premier license to trade. Please pm me.
I imported the previous year and created the current year file a few weeks back. Now, when I'm ready to start inputting data, there's not the usual list of available returns (I have two to do) until I login to my Intuit account first. Actually I had to manually point to the tax file (File, Open), there was no list of returns in TT itself. Is that the new process flow. What if I want to work on it offline or lose/forget my PW, etc? Doesn't make sense to me. Am I'm missing something, I think I must be? Very rattled.

After you activate your license, you don't need to use the intuit account any more and no tax information is stored online for the cd/download version.

I activated back in Jan when I was doing the initial install, imported previous year and stopped after I verifed the personal information for each return (2). Where I'm getting thrown off is the list of returns doesn't show within TT today. I have to manually point to them. I skip the initial registration screen (address, etc) like I always do every year, then I get the screen offering to use the Online version or Begin. Begin takes me to creating a new return but I'm expected to see the two returns I created after the previous importing. So this is where I'm seeing something unexpected. I can go and do the manual File, Open but as I said, it's not normal. I guess I'm able to proceed, but it's different so I'm just a bit alarmed.
I'm guessing TT's not remembering the path to my returns. I can't remember if I accepted the default in the past and then moved them after completion or not. That may be the hiccup since I moved them at the start this year? Seems like it should retain it once I selected it though.
*Okay, problem/mystery solved: Apparently, just importing previous year's data, which is as far as I went after I installed TT, isn't enough for TT to acknowledge as a new return. Now that I've entered and saved with actual 2023 data the expected return is now showing within TT. Pearl clutching...disengaged.
