Keep in mind the new TTax licensing rules - you will need to pay $10 for each
additional return you print (not just file).

Are you sure that fee isn't for E-filing? I can't imagine they will charge
you $10 for printing another return. If they do, Tax Cut here I come!

Nope. As we are learning on this group, the moderated tax group, amazon
tax forums, and turbotax forums that is correct. TT deluxe (list
$59.95) includes one (1) free federal filing (either e-fileing *or*
paper filing) - state e-filing is extra (state paper filing is free -
for the *1st* return).

Each additional return requires a payment of $9.95 in order to repeat
the above for the additional return.

Wow! I only do one return but I'm unable to E-file due to a limited
partnership requiring a K1 so this new pricing structure only costs me more
money.

Hi, Bob.

I've been out of practice for over a decade, but so far as I know, having
income on a K-1 from a partnership is no barrier to e-filing. Is it?

Or did you mean that you want to e-file the partnership's return, Form 1065?
There has never been a requirement to attach the K-1 to the individual
partner's Form 1040. All that is needed is the data from the K-1, and that
can be entered on Schedule E of the 1040, just like so many other forms of
income.

Are you SURE you can't e-file?
