You will need TurboTax Business to prepare your corporate tax return (1120S) and the K-1 that you will need for your personal return.  

 

For your personal tax return, you will need TurboTax Premier or Self-Employed or TurboTax Premier or Self-Employed Live if you are going to use the web-based online program.  

 

You can use any version of the desktop software to complete your personal tax return.  However, TurboTax Premier or Home & Business desktop will include ''Guide Me'' screens to guide you through reporting the K-1 from your S-Corp.
