Which product do I need?

I have to prepare a tax return for a trust, and I have to prepare individual returns for Myself and My adult children.  Can I do this with one product?

No.    A return for a trust requires TurboTax Business used on a Windows PC.    Your own personal returns can be prepared using desktop download Deluxe, Premier or Home and Business.   They can be used on a full PC.

You can also purchase the desktop download from various retailers such as Costco, Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy, Staples, Sam’s Club, etc. etc. etc.

 

This link Where can I obtain authentic TurboTax software? has a list of authorized TurboTax resellers.

 

When you use desktop software, there is an additional fee to e-file a state return.  You can avoid that fee if you print, sign and mail the state return.
