I have used Online version of TurboTax online since 2006.
By some reason (which i don't understand) online version become more expensive than desktop therefore I'm considering to buty a desctop version from Costco.
My question is if I buy the desctop version of Turbot Tax Premier will I be able to login to my account that I used for years and still access my data as I am with my Online filing?

    You will always be able to log into your online account to access prior-year returns filed with TurboTax Online.  However, when you prepare your taxes using the CD/Download, your returns are not saved online.  You will need to save copies to your computer (or storage device of your choice) and keep up with them yourself.

     

    Reference:  How do I get a copy of a tax return prepared with the TurboTax CD/Download software?
