You (he) needs to file a 1065 Partnership return and TurboTax for Business would be used for that, not Home and Business.. TurboTax for Business generates the k-1s, you don't just fill them in outside of the 1065. Copies of them are filed with the IRS as part of the 1065 filing.The Partnership needs to generate two k-1s, one for each partner. He can decide how to allocate everything between the partners but that needs to be done as part of the 1065. Deluxe will do fine for you for entering the k-1. He does not enter the Business information anywhere except by entering the k-1.
