With online TurboTax you get one return per fee.  Each return needs its own account and user ID.

 

With the CD/download you can e-file up to five federal returns and state returns.   You can prepare more than five if the additional ones are mailed.

If it's the online version you can only do one persons taxes with turbotax. For any others they need to open their own TurboTax account. For the CD/download version you can do up to 5 different  taxes.
