Hello, I have a complex return this year. I have a job plus my own business. And my parents passed away so I need to file estate return. Can turbo tax handle this?

I was planning to use the expert service.

I am sorry for your loss.

 

TurboTax offers expert (Full service or assisted) for your individual income tax return and, I presume, that would be applicable to the final 1040 you might need to file for your parents.

 

However, there is no expert (full or assisted) service for preparing a 1041 for an estate at this time. You could buy TurboTax Business, which supports the preparation of Form 1041, but you would have to prepare the form and schedules without expert assistance.
