Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@phraxos Yes, I would say that @nexchap is right, and that, if you need to file Form 8990, most taxpayers will be limited to filing their entire return by mail, and completing the 8990 outside of TurboTax.

 

I have the advantage of already purchasing TurboTax Business (to complete unrelated 1065s every year), and this version does include Form 8990, so I can use it to prepare the form, although it is a little tricky to do (since you basically have to create a dummy 1065 to access that single 8990 form).  So, that's to say, it can be done if you already have TurboTax Business ... but I wouldn't buy TurboTax Business only for that purpose.  Once you get the hang of it, completing the 8990 seems fairly routine.  Most PTP investors will only use a handful of lines on that admittedly complicated form.
