What Turbo Tax package do I need to file Form 1041?

I have Turbo Tax Home and Business 2022. It doesn't allow me to import the Estate tax (Form 1041) from last year. Error msg: "You have selected 2021 Estate / Trust (Form 1041) return which will not work with this."

How do I proceed to file thhe Form 1041?

You need the Business program which handles Corporations, Partnerships and Estates.

Odd advertising from Intuit. The "Home&Business" version handles less than the "Business" version. Who would have guessed.

I suppose another way to extract more $$$ from the customers.

Looks like I should have bought "Home" plus "Business" instead of the assumed to be combined "Home & Business" product.

Go figure.....

That doesn't answer what "Home & Business" is for and what the differences between the "Home & Business" business portion and the "Business" package are.

Misleading product names bordering on false advertising.

 You would need 2 programs.

Turbo Tax Business and Turbo Tax Home & Business are not the same.  Home & Business is for personal 1040 returns that need Schedule C for self employment income.  You can use either the Desktop program or the Online version for your personal return.

 

Turbo Tax Business is a separate program from Home & Business.  TT Business is for 1120 Corporation, 1120S Corp, 1065 Partnership or 1041 Estate/Trust returns. Not for self employed independent contractors.  Turbo Tax Business  is not available to do online or on a Mac.  You can buy the Window's version here.  And you can have both TT Business and TT Home & Business (or any personal version) installed on  your computer at the same time.
