Get your taxes done using TurboTax

> Frankly, you most likely would be better off using TurboTax Live

I completely  disagree and am kicking myself for giving TurboTax Live another chance after last year's fiasco of conflicting information/misinformation. As someone with similar K-1 troubles who has talked to 4 different TurboTax Live folks who had different answers for the same questions and at least one person from the regular TurboTax line who said they were a Tax accountant when I'm pretty sure they weren't (thanks to the long pause they gave when I asked them that and the fact that they were reading the same community threads to me that I had been using the night before rather than knowing the answers to my questions), I would not go with TurboTax Live. I've also been disconnected or possibly hung up on twice, once exactly at quitting time (so it may have been an automated thing). 

The last lady, before we got disconnected, told me I needed to enter multiple K-1s for the same company if I had multiple sales dates listed on the same K-1. I'm pretty sure that's not correct (and I am happy to admit I'm wrong if someone tells me that's the right way to do it, but why would you enter all the other K-1 information for multiple sales?). I think the most knowledgeable person last year said to aggregate the sales and list "various" as the sales date, but I can't remember for sure, and one lady this year said you couldn't use "various" on the sales date, just on the acquired date. She might be right... I seem to remember having a lot of trouble with the review last year, but that could have been some other things triggering that.

Your mileage may vary, and I hope it does, but there's a reason I'm still checking the forums for more information about K-1 entry two years in a row and having spent probably over 20 hours trying to get this information.

Oh, and the second to last "accountant" said that they aren't allowed to tell me what numbers go where and that's why she was looking for a community description of what I wanted. (There's a great post out there, but it doesn't cover the AMT info). I just wanted a map of what numbers on the K-1 Sales Schedule corresponded to the question boxes in TurboTax. (Again, there are a few great community folks who have posted similar information, but they don't seem to continue through explaining everything, which is totally understandable since posting is a lot of work. I much appreciate the folks out there who have posted!)
