TurboTax Federal & State PC download to external hard drive

Hi – I’m looking to purchase the TurboTax Federal & State PC download from Amazon; however it states that the download size is 524MB. I don’t have 524MB of free space on my PC. Could I download it to an external hard drive and run it from there? I want to make sure this is an option as it states that it’s non-returnable and non-refundable.

 

Thanks

TurboTax Federal & State PC download to external hard drive

Hello,

 

You should be able to run your Turbotax Desktop version through an external hard drive.

 

Just ensure you are purchasing the Canadian version of Turbotax (since state + federal is for US tax filings).  You can purchase the Canadian version here or at any of our various retailers:

Hope this helps!
