form 3115

linjmur — Mon, 01 Feb 2021 16:04:49 GMT

I have done about 80% of my return online using "Premier". I discovered that I need to use Form 3115 due to an error in depreciation years by my CPA in previous years. Do any of the online Turbotax programs allow for form 3115 or do I need to buy the download/CD business version. If I need to use the download version is there a way to transfer what I have entered so far?

thanks

You will have to purchase a desktop version of TurboTax for Form 3115 and, basically, start over with that version.

However, even with the desktop versions, Form 3115 generally needs to be prepared in Forms Mode (there is virtually no guidance in terms of making entries). As a result, you might be better advised to seek guidance from a tax professional to prepare this form.
