Question

Doing taxes for others

I have occasion to help relatives with their taxes using TurboTax. Are there any problems with this?

    There are no problems with helping relatives with their tax returns. TurboTax is not designed for tax professionals but for the taxpayer.

     

    The Desktop software (CD/Download) offers 5 free Federal e-files, and one free State program.  There is a charge to e-file a State return.

    It's good to know that.  I don't want to abuse the program.  I helped one other person this year who is disabled.  Thanks for the information.
