Can you file a Schedule K-1 (Form 1041) on a personal tax return? It's an inheritance from an IRA/Living Trust.

is your name and SSN appearing in part II of the K-1? if yes, then you must include it on your 1040

Yes it is – but TurboTax Help states this form has to be filed using the Business version of their platform, and I was hoping to claim the inheritance/IRA amount on our personal return.
