Can I install TurboTax CD on both PC and Mac for only one license fee?

I am converting to Mac from a PC.  Want to be able to run parallel on both Mac and PC for the first year to be certain everything OK since have been filing via PC version for past decade.  Will only use software to prepare one person's tax return.  Hope I don't have to pay for software twice.

This is perhaps a new wrinkle, or at least new to me. If I buy the download version of TurboTax directly from Intuit (https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/cd-download/), it asks me to choose between PC and Mac. So if I choose PC, will I still be able to install the Mac version, later? (Obviously, it's implying no, but in the past I always got both versions when I bought it from Amazon or Costco, so is it really limited when buying directly from Intuit?)

Yes you have to pick PC or Mac when you buy the download from Turbo Tax or from anywhere like Costco.  But then you can log in to get the other one.

 

When you access your downloads there will be a button to get the other one.   Access your downloads here
