Upgrade existing Turbotax installation

mrindler75 — Mon, 23 Feb 2026 13:32:53 GMT

I have Turbotax Home and Business installed on my Windows PC.

It looks like I need the the TurboTax Business version to handle Trusts and Partnership requirements.

How do I go about acquiring that.

Will I receive a different product code that will then upgrade my existing installation?

Appreciate info and tips

Sorry you can NOT upgrade Home & Business to Business. You would need 2 programs.

Turbo Tax Business and Turbo Tax Home & Business are not the same. Home & Business is for personal 1040 returns that need Schedule C for self employment income. You can use either the Desktop program or the Online version for your personal return.

Turbo Tax Business is a separate program from Home & Business. TT Business is for 1120 Corporation, 1120S Corp, 1065 Partnership or 1041 Estate/Trust returns. Not for self employed independent contractors. Turbo Tax Business is not available to do online or on a Mac. You can buy the Window's version here. And you can have both TT Business and TT Home & Business (or any personal version) installed on your computer at the same time.

You need Turbo Tax Business. It is a separate program from Home & Business. It is not available to do online or on a Mac. And it will not do your personal 1040 return.

You can buy the Window's version here…..
