Is form 1041 included in the desktop Home and Business edition?

Turbo tax Home and Business lists Schedules K-1 (Form 1041) Estates and Trusts under the “View Forms” hyperlink at the bottom of the Desktop comparison page at https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/compare/desktop/ .   

 

Is this form included or not in this edition?  I can’t find it or get it to come up in my Home and Business program.  If not, how come this form is listed for this edition on the web page?

The entry in that list refers to the capability of entry of a K-1 received from a trust or estate (Form 1041), not that Form 1041 is actually included in the program (hence "Form 1041" is in parentheses).

 

If you need to prepare a 1041 for an estate or trust, you need TurboTax Business, which can only be used to prepare income tax returns for entities; the program does not do income tax returns for individuals. Further, there is no online nor Mac version; it must be installed and run in a Windows environment.
