Getting started

@jkinghorn If you use TurboTax Desktop, you will pay for a license good for a number of returns upfront. All versions of TurboTax Desktop have the same forms, so any version can do a return for someone with a T5008. We recommend using TurboTax Desktop Premier (or higher) as it provides more guidance regarding investments. But if you start with Basic or Standard, you can upgrade to Premier, but you'll be upgrading all the returns on that license.

Please note that TurboTax Desktop will only work on Windows PCs (Windows 11 recommended). Also you can't transfer or open your TurboTax Do It Yourself/Online returns in the Desktop software.
