📌 Why this matters
Installing TurboTax directly on your Mac gives you complete control over your tax data without relying on internet connectivity or cloud services. You can work on returns during flights, in areas with spotty wifi, or simply prefer keeping sensitive financial information stored locally on your device. The desktop version also processes complex calculations faster than web-based alternatives and maintains your tax history across multiple years in one secure location, making it easier to reference previous returns when needed.
