How can I efile W2&1099 using turbotax business?

I am S.corp owner and have to file W2s and 1099s by the end of this month. I can't find any options for e-file W2/1099 on Turbotax business. 

Any help would be appreciated.

To prepare forms 1099 or W-2 in TurboTax Business, save your open return and start a new return.

  1. Click on Start a New return
  2. On the next page, click on Prepare W-2s and 1099s
  3. On the next page, you will then be given a choice between preparing your forms Online or using your desktop.
  4. We recommend doing it online as you can e-file for free. You can still print the forms to send to your employees or contractors.
  5. Click Choose Online and you will be taken to the TurboTax Quick Employer Forms (QEF) website.
  6. Sign in with your TurboTax username and password. If you do not have an account, click Create Account to create a new account. Note carefully the username and password as you need them if you need to retrieve the forms later.
  7. After signing in, click on Create New Form
  8. On the next page, choose the type of forms you wish to prepare then click Continue to begin entering information for your forms.

Yes you have to choose the option to do them Online using QEF Quick Employer Forms. If you do them using the option on your computer you can only print and mail them to the IRS.
