2024 Windows Desktop download

Help please. Not sure why this has been so difficult to find an answer to.  If i go to this page https://turbotax.intuit.ca/tax/software/download, I get to see the 6 versions of Turbo Tax I can download. But prior to to making a decision on which product I want, I would like to read a brief description of each and what the COST would be. But those options are not there! The only option available is DOWNLOAD.  I dont want to download before having all the facts! Especially the COST.  Can you please tell me what the PRICE is for all 6 versions. If there is a better deal to be had I will obviously go elsewhere. Please help me ASAP. Thanks

I feel your pain  - WORST WEBSITE ever!!!!  I have gone around in circles.   All I want is the following:

1 To review how many returns with gross income above $20,000 can actually be filed in 2024 Canadian HOME & BUSINESS Desktop version.   In past years the info marketed on the box when bought in stores has lied big time.   Maybe this is the year I need to switch to Ufile.   

2.  Download above product once I confirm it will fit my needs for doing the family's returns this year.

 

I DO NOT want ONLINE.  I DO NOT want tax expert services.  I DO NOT want US turbo tax.  I DO NOT LIKE HAVING MY TIME WASTED!!!!!!

Can you use the desktop download on more than 1 computer?  We purchased it but want to use a different computer from our start as the 2nd has more capacity.

TurboTax Desktop License code can be install on 3 different computers. The difference this year is, the code will be registered under one account. If a 2nd person needs to install the Desktop software, they will have to enter the account information of the owner of the account. We invite you to visit this article for more information.

 

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.

@DebKay Yes, you can download/install/activate TurboTax Desktop on a total of 3 computers. To do so, for the 2nd and 3rd computer, during installation process, when the system is asking you to login to the account, you have to use the account information where the license code was activated to, originally.

 

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.

Which of your personal tax packages do I need if I want to withdraw personal income from my corporation in the form of a management fee?

@Kron8 Are you issuing yourself a T-slip for these management fees?

Hi, I do not know, what are the pros and cons if you have a net loss? My previous accountant suggested a management fee rather than salary or dividends. The corporation owns my investments, which have a capital loss that will offset future capital gains. Thanks

@Kron8 

I'm not a tax expert, so I wouldn't be able to advise you of what the best way for you to pay yourself from your corporation.

 

But if you are using TurboTax Online, the fee is based on what you enter, and if you have no slip for your income, you might need to enter it as Self-Employed income.

 

If you are using TurboTax Desktop, all versions have the same tax forms, but offer different levels of guidance. So, if you are not familiar with tax forms, you might need a higher version - like Home & Business for Self-Employed income.
