Relevant Blog: Registering your TurboTax product is significant primarily for security, support, and critical updates related to your tax filing, and it is a mandatory step for product activation and usage. 
Key Reasons and Significance
  • Security and Fraud Protection: Registration helps establish a secure account with Intuit, allowing TurboTax to employ security features like multi-factor authentication and track login activity. This safeguards your sensitive personal and financial information while you file your taxes.
  • Critical Communications: It allows Intuit (the maker of TurboTax) to contact you directly in the unlikely event of a program issue that could affect your taxes, such as a calculation error or a critical software update.
  • Product Activation: For both online and desktop versions, registration with an Intuit account is a required part of the installation and activation process. Without it, you cannot use the software to prepare or e-file your tax return.
  • Guarantees and Support: Registration ensures you are covered by TurboTax guarantees, such as the 100% Accurate Calculations Guarantee. It also provides access to product specialists, community discussions, and customer support channels if you need help.
  • Seamless Experience and Features: It enables key features like importing tax data from previous years' returns, connecting to government services (like CRA's Auto-fill My Return in Canada or the IRS in the US), and automatic software updates, which help ensure you are using the most current tax laws and features. 
Essentially, registration links your software license to a secure user account, creating a safe and supported environment for handling your confidential tax information. You can manage your contact preferences within your Intuit Account settings. .." (Google)
