Most LLCs are partnerships under federal tax law and must file a form 1065 partnership return (unless the only two members are spouses AND you live in a community property state, which NY is not.). Some LLCs may be corporations or may file a form to be taxed as a corporation even if they are a partnership. Corporations file form 1120.
The 1065 is prepared using Turbotax Business version. This is a separate program that is only available as a CD or download to install on a PC, there is no Mac or online version, and it is not the same as "home & business." When you file the 1065, each partner will receive a K-1 statement showing income and expenses of the partnership and they enter the K-1 on their personal tax return. The deadline for filing the 1065 is March 15, not April 15, and the penalty for late filing is $195 per month per partner.
If you have no income or expenses and your LLC is a partnership, you may not be required to file form 1065. If you are a corporation, you must file the 1120 even if you have no income or expenses.
