Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If you are including Form 5405 with your tax return, TurboTax will automatically select Form 1040 for you. (Forms 1040EZ and 1040A cannot accommodate a return with Form 5405.) After you enter the information for Form 5405 you may preview your Form 1040.

• Continue your return in TurboTax Online. (If your return isn't open, you'll need to sign in and click Take me to my return.)
• Click the drop-down arrow next to Tax Tools (lower left of your screen).
• Select Tools.
• In the pop-up window, select Topic Search.
• In the I'm looking for: box, type 5405.
• In the results box, highlight 5405, first-time homebuyer credit, then click GO.
