You can't get anything like that from Turbo Tax. Turbo Tax is a self prepared return. I never heard of a investor status? What is that?

Accredited investor

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An accredited or sophisticated investor is an investor with a special status under financial regulation laws. The definition of an accredited investor (if any), and the consequences of being classified as such, vary between countries. Generally, accredited investors include high-net-worth individuals, banks, financial institutions and other large corporations, who have access to complex and higher-risk investments such as venture capital, hedge funds and angel investments.

Laws may require that some types of financial offerings may only be made to accredited investors.[1

a charitable organization, corporation, or partnership with assets exceeding $5 million;
a director, executive officer, or general partner of the company selling the securities;
a business in which all the equity owners are accredited investors;
