Please add Form 8846 to the list of forms included with Home and Business. This form is used for small business restaurants to claim a credit for reporting employee tips for social security purposes. It is the only schedule I need that is not included in the packet. It forces me to print and mail my return every year. I'm still waiting on my 2020 refund because of it. It is a tiny, simple form. And I have to think many small businesses require this form. I would gladly pay extra for an extension pack just to get this form. As a single member LLC, I have no option but to use the Home and Business version, but it is really inconvenient to print and mail my entire return for one schedule that has 6 simple lines on it (only 2 require entry). Thank you for your consideration.

Form 8846 is not included in any individual version of TurboTax.

Form 8846 is, however, supported by TurboTax Business, which makes perfect sense as the thinking here would be that the vast majority of businesses that need to file the form operate under a structure other than a sole proprietorship.
I do know that it is included in the Business version of TurboTax. If I had the option to purchase that version, I would. But that version is not meant to produce a Schedule C. I would gladly pay extra for them to have an extension pack since those forms are already included in other versions. I would think there are many, many sole proprietorship and single member LLC mom & pop restaurants and food trucks who could also use this option.

It is entirely possible, but only if they prepare their own income tax returns and, even then, only if they use TurboTax to do so.
I also wish TurboTax would add this form. I don't understand the responses pushing back on this...clearly the OP needs it, and I also have to print/mail my tax return because TurboTax does not support it on Schedule C. So it adds value (significant value to those who need it, because the delays waiting for refunds from mailed tax returns are lengthy!!!). PLEASE ADD FORM 8846 TO THE HOME & BUSINESS PACKAGE.

No one in this thread is "pushing back" on anything.
Everyone who posts responses on this board is either a volunteer (like the Champs) or some sort of employee who serves as an administrator of the board or is engaged specifically to answer tax and program functionality questions.
The developers and their management team are the sole arbiters of which forms are included in each software package.
