When I called Quickbooks online support on February 17th, 2025 they informed me that the only way to transfer my QBO data to Quickbooks desktop is to hire a Pro Advisor to do it for me. I told QBO support I was getting a "1009 - Internal error: Unkown expection" when using the Quickbooks Desktop migration tool trying to import my .QBXML QBO export to Quickbooks desktop. QBO support told me this is a known issue with no known ETA for a fix (or if it will ever be fixed). They informed me that the only option to get my Quickbooks Online data into Quickbooks desktop is to hire a Pro Advisor to do it for me.

There is no longer any way for customers to get their QBO data into Turbotax on their own.
