When you use Online TurboTax, you get one return per fee. Each return needs its own account and user ID. If you use the same account and user ID for a second return, you overwrite the first one and lose it forever.

You can e-file 5 tax returns using the same TurboTax Desktop software. If you use TurboTax Online to file multiple returns, each tax return will need its own Intuit Account with a unique user ID and password. Plus, each tax return will be subject to its own fees.

If I use the same turbo tax deluxe desktop software to file 2 different tax returns, does each person need to create their own intuit account?

No. When you use desktop you do not keep logging in to "online accounts". When you use desktop software you just open the program on your own computer and go up to File (top left of your screen) and click it to get New Tax Return to do a second return. You can prepare and e-file up to five federal returns using desktop.
