5 free federal e-files: Does this mean I can do returns for 4 other people, regardless if they are related to me, or a dependant?

I have been using Tax Cut for 4 years now. How the states have worked in the past is you get one state if you buy a product that includes the state. You can do as many state returns as you want for that state. For example, I live in Virginia and I can do my return and as many friends returns as I want on the software as long as they are in Virginia. My family lives in Kentucky, so I have to buy an additional state for Kentucky, but I can do as many as I want with that state. The e-file fees are separate. You have to pay those fees for each state return e-filed. If you paper file, there are no additional fees for the states once you purchase that state. As far as the federal e-file is concerned, you can use the 5 free for any 5 federal returns that you e-file - doesn't matter who they are. Hope this helps in clearing some of the confusion! Overall, I have been very pleased with the software and will use it again this year.

You can install the software on another computer, but don't forget to transfer the file you created for your tax return to that other computer as well.

Yes, there is a limit of five people who can file their tax using it. There is alos five free Federal e-files included.I file my taxes and my daughter's every year with the software.

I am curious about this as well. I do not want to have to buy an additional state package if another person in my house needs to file.

If you look at the image of the product, on the front cover, it says "Five Free Federal E-Files".

Hi Debbie,No I never had anyone respond to my question except a salesperson for NeatReceipts! I was looking for it's simplicity for my daughter's business receipts and tax time efficiency. As far as stores, I would think not. When doing rebates, they usually tell you to keep the copy and send the original.I use my flatbed scanner and keep a copies that way. Have a Great Day:o)Pat

If u employ the car unit on a home doc - for sure. Not certain about same account on separate units.

I believe it's 3, as long as they are all registered to the same person and the same as the purchaser.

This response is for the actual software shipped to you and NOT the download which *might* work differently. ~~ In previous years, I have used the software to file my own taxes and then passed it to a friend who also used it for her own taxes, including using the efile. (I never registered the product with H&R Block and she even has a different address than me.) I have not finished my taxes for this year yet, but if the previous years are any indication, then it *should* work again the same way. I find no indication that they have limited the e-files so that only ONE user can use them, i.e., nothing on the box or in the material says that.

Sure you can, just need to buy them separate, you don't need all 5 if you need just 2.

Turbo Tax is really easy to ask questions of this year, just type in the help. It's 5 actually.

All paid purchases include 5 free federal efiles but the state efile costs around $20.

From what I can gather from looking at the literature and from talking with representatives, there is no maximum number of claims that you can make. However, they have to be legitimate claims. Obviously, after several claims, red flags would start popping up that maybe you were gaming the system. For instance, my granddaughter forgot her password, and so could not use her tablet. That was not covered. She eventually remembered it. 6 months later, the tablet fell into the neighbor's pool. They referred back to the password claim. My explanation of the coincidence was sufficient for them to issue a refund.

I'm really not sure. I would suggest that she pose that question to the Turbo Tax Support Assistance.

Yes, if you purchase the download or the retail package (which you can get from Amazon). Also, "yes" if you pay for the online version (which you cannot get from Amazon, you can get this from the TurboTax website). I believe the only case where the Basic version would not print the federal return is if you use the online version, and don't pay the 20 bucks when you want to file your return. I have used the Basic version of TurboTax since 1996. In my opinion, the only benefit to the Deluxe and Premier versions is that they provide you with more guidance for more complicated returns. If you generally know what you are doing (say, not much has changed from previous tax returns), the Basic version should suit your needs.

You can e-file up to 5 federal returns which is the IRS limit for e-file. The federal e-file is free. You can e-file up to 3 state returns per federal return. The state e-file is not free. You can print and mail your state return for free, or you can pay for the e-file ($19.99 per e-file). You can print and mail as many federal or state returns as you want for free, there is no limit. Only one free state-package is included, though, which you select to download when you install/get to the state part. If you are in the situation you need to file a return in more than one state, it will cost $39.99 per extra state (in addition to the optional e-file cost).

I think you will have to pay as a multiple user anyway. I had 3 PC's here and they made me pay as a multiple user. I would call Intuit.
