Good idea! You do not need to do anything differently. Just create a return and go through the interview, entering the requested information, so you get a feel for the program and how TurboTax walks you through the process.
If you wish to view the actual forms at any time you can go into Forms Mode:
- Go into Forms Mode by clicking on the Forms icon in the top right of the blue bar.
- In the Forms in My Return list on the left, double-click on the form you wish to open.
- If you want to view a form that doesn't appear in the list, click on the Open Form icon at the top of the list (it may take a minute to open) and search for the desired form.
- To return to the interview, click on the Step-By-Step icon in the top right of the blue bar.
While you are in Forms Mode, you might want to checkout the What-If worksheet. This allows you to see the tax implications of different scenarios, for example: changing your filing status, stock sale (capital gains), IRA contributions, etc. To access the What-if worksheet, follow step 3, above. Remember to hyphenate "What-if."
