You will need to complete the form yourself and add it to the return using the FORMS mode in one of the TT Downloaded/CD  versions and then attach it to the paper return  you will need to mail.   

 

OR  ... efile without it ... then amend the return to add that form. Amended returns must be mailed in and will take 4 to 6 months to process but it is an option.

Per the FAQ at https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/forms/help/which-irs-forms-are-not-included-in-turbotax/00/25551 the IRS Form 8908 is not included in TurboTax.

Who are you using for the certification and how are you finding that process?
