Get your taxes done using TurboTax
I'm confused as to how you can prepare a correct tax return without your foreign business income?
If you use Turbotax online, you can get two types of output. You can download your tax data file containing a partial or completed tax return without paying. Whether this will be useful to your professional is something you have to ask them. Professionals who use Intuit's professional software might be able to import the consumer software datafile, but I don't use the pro series so I don't know. I suspect that if they use another company's software, they won't be able to use the data file. But you have to ask them.
You can also print your tax return on paper, or save it as a PDF. Since a PDF return could be printed and filed, you have to pay any Turbotax preparation fees before you are allowed to print, unless your tax return qualifies for free filing. I can't tell you if you qualify for free filing because I don't know your situation. A tax professional might be able to import from the PDF, but again, you have to ask them.
