Yes, the software comes with 1 free year of QuickBooks. You can sign in with the same user name and password as your TurboTax account. There is a support system to help with Quickbooks.

How do I sign up for the Quickbooks and if I stay using turbo tax online do I have to renew every year for QuickBooks?

Last year, Quickbooks was included in the cost of the return. This year, the opposite is the case. The tax return is included with the Quickbooks. Please see Quickbooks for self-employed for pricing and details.

Hi! Thank you for this information, truly helpful! Once I sign up for the software, will it give me one year? The link states 3 months at half price. Thanks again for your help.

A free Quickbooks one year subscription is no longer available as part of purchasing TurboTax Self-Employed. Quickbooks Self-Employed and TurboTax are offering a Self-Employed bundle this year. With a monthly subscription you will receive one tax return and state for TurboTax. Please see this link for current pricing.
