The online version of Turbo Tax is separate from the CD version. 

 

If you file using the online version, you would have to pay for the online version. 

 

If you need any additional assistance, you can contact customer service by following the instructions here

Are you on Windows or Mac?  Did you get Home & Business installed ok?

 

In the Window's Home & Business or Business Desktop program to Prepare W2s or 1099s, go to Start a New Return or File-New Return.

Then on the next screen it asks What would you like to do?

 

Check the circle that says Prepare W-2s and 1099s for my employees or contractors.  Then that will expand and give you a choice to prepare them online or on your computer.

 

Another way to get to the Quick Employer Forms QEF is to go to the Business tab - Continue

Select I'll Choose what I work on (if it comes up)

Top item Profit or Loss from Business Click Update or Start

Click Edit by your Business

 

Then either

Scroll down to Business Expenses

On Other Common Business Expenses, click the start or update button

There are two sections where you can start using the QEF for contractors or employees.

For contractors, on Contract Labor, click the start or update button

On the screen "Enter Contract Labor Expenses" there is shown "Create and file W-2s and 1099s online with TurboTax Quick Employer Forms." and a "Start here" blue highlighted link.  This will take you to the QEF website.

 

OR

Under Business Profile - Edit

Scroll down to Has Employees - Click EDIT

Then Create and file W-2s and 1099s online with TurboTax Quick Employer Forms. Click on  Start here
