Turbotax for Business and Virginia State Filing for Estate

[jtdc1]

I am doing a Form 1041 for 2020 for my mother's estate.  I will also need to file for Virginia.  I know I need to use TurboTax for Business which I plan to buy on Amazon but I am unsure how I then do the state filing as it says "Federal Only" on the listing.  How does that work?  Thanks.

You purchase the state (Virginia) from within the program.

The state program for the Business Edition is purchased from within the Business Edition program after installing.

Click on Online at the top of the desktop program screen.  Click on Download State

Thank you for the replies.  I just want to make sure I do this correctly.  I assume the version on Amazon is the same and that the option for state download will be available.  I was just thrown by the fact that it says "Federal Only" rather than indicating that the state is optional.  Additionally, will the state filing be electronic for the $50 purchase?

The (purchased) state includes a free e-file.

When is TurboTax Business available for download?  Support could not tell me.

It appears as if it is available on Amazon at this time.

It’s not available yet through TurboTax and the Amazon site takes you right back to TurboTax site.

You can buy the separate Turbo Tax Business Desktop program now from Turbo Tax.

Only the Personal Online versions have not opened yet.  But all the Desktop programs are available now.

So, the CD download version is not available now?  How do you four when can purchase and get?

When you click on the Buy now button on the web page for the TurboTax Business edition, on the window that opens click on the Blue highlighted link I'd like to order a CD - https://turbotax.intuit.com/small-business-taxes/

I said it is available and you CAN buy it now.  Both the CD and the Download program.  You can download it now.

That is contradictory to my spending time with a representative over the phone this afternoon that told me it is not yet released for download?  She said to check back in a week or two to see if it was available.  I had the product in my Advantage account for two weeks but it never came to be available.
