Is this still under a three year rule?
Since new versions are available long before their version year, how does one apply an "n" year rule? Specifically, in what year and month would Q 2009 lose the online capability?
Thanks!

it's usually 3 years forward - at the end of April - so Q2009 -> end of April 2012

Thanks for the info. Guess I'll check out the Q/TT tie-in sales later this year.

I've purchased older versions off EBAY for much reduced rates. Kinda like buying a used car with the depreciation already depreciated. ;-D
If my 2009 sunsets in 2012, I'll be looking for a 2011 version early next year. Works for me?
Are you asking?
If so, yes, it works for you.

Important to note: your application doesn't quit working, it only means that you can't download transactions from FIs. Not sure what the TurboTax implications are, though.
YMMV.... There might be a few bells/whistles & some GUI changes, but the core of the app doesn't really change all that much. I usually just wait until I have to upgrade to preserve the xctn download.
Although for me, the cost of the app isn't prohibitive, I guess that means I reduce my maintenance cost by 2/3 & only go thru the frustration of learning the GUI changes once every 3 years.
Thanks! It was actually a very poorly worded statement - not a question. ;-D
Just givin' you a hard time.
Your plan sounds fiscally solid.
In the past, there's been talk about Intuit eliminating software and going to an online product, but of late, I haven't heard much more.
Anyone?
