I had to use TurboTax Business to obtain a Form 1041. I found this program not as user friendly as Form 1040. I don't file a state tax return, but TurboTax informed me I had to. so from that page, I stopped doing what Turbo Tax required for state. The first time I processed the return I was rejected by the IRS. I spent most of today talking to two TurboTax employees and one IRS employee. The Name, Code and EIN check balance somehow did not match so the form was rejected. I have sent a second e-filing to see if all was corrected.
Paul was great, he walked me through all the necessary steps I needed to take care of and kept me on the line until he was sure everything was properly documented!
Maybe there's a way to do it, but seems like every time I reopen the file I need to start from the beginning (at least for each section). It would be nice if it could pick up where I left off.
Business version is expensive, but it is worth it to keep from having to dig through IRS documents to try to understand which forms need to be filed and how to fill them out. It also eliminates my math errors and transcription errors when moving information from one form to another. Trying to interpret IRS instructions always gives me a headache and inspires me to put off filing.
