Turbotax for both personal and S-corp

Can I use one Intuit account to file both personal and S-corp returns online?  Or do I need to create two separate Intuit accounts, one for personal and one for the S-corp?

Sorry,  you need both.

You need the Turbo Tax Business Desktop program.  It  is a separate program from Home & Business.  It is not available to do online or on a Mac.  And it will not do your personal 1040 return.  You can have both Turbo Tax Business and a personal version (like Home & Business) installed at the same time.  Or use the Online version for your personal return.  

 

You will need Turbo Tax Business for Windows.   It is not available to do online or on a Mac.  And it will not do your personal 1040 return.  You can have both Turbo Tax Business and a personal version (like Home & Business) installed at the same time.

 

You can buy the Window's version here…..

If you need to file a return for an S-corps, you need TurboTax Business on a Windows computer for that.    You cannot use an online account for TT Business -- unless you choose one of the "Live" versions that includes help or full service with a tax expert.  There is not an online "do-it-yourself" version of TurboTax Business software.

And you will need a second software program in order to prepare and file your personal Form 1040.

You can also purchase the desktop download from various retailers such as Costco, Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy, Staples, Sam’s Club, etc. etc. etc.

 

This link Where can I obtain authentic TurboTax software? has a list of authorized TurboTax resellers.

 

When you use desktop software, there is an additional fee to e-file a state return.  You can avoid that fee if you print, sign and mail the state return.  The state e-file fee is $20 and increases to $25 in March.

I want to use the "Live" assisted version online for both personal and S-corp.  Does this require two separate Intuit accounts, or can I do both in a single Intuit account?
