It looks like you might be using the incorrect version of TurboTax for filing Form 1041 for estates. TurboTax for Home and Business doesn't support filing Form 1041 for estates. 

To file Form 1041, you need TurboTax Business. 

 

Here are steps  to use TurboTax Desktop to file your 1041 and claim a refund for TurboTax Home & Business

  1. Download TurboTax Business: If you have access to a Windows computer, you can  download TurboTax Business from the TurboTax website (MAC Business/Estates not currently available for download/desktop).
  2. Request a Refund: Since purchased the wrong version, you can request a refund by contacting TurboTax support through their refund request page here.
    1. You can request a refund for TurboTax Desktop products using the form below. Only purchases made directly through TurboTax (including TurboTax Advantage) or through one of TurboTaxes' authorized retailers/resellers can qualify for the 60-day money-back guarantee.
