I need to prepare a Form 1065 for an LLC created in 2015, so that the K-1 will be produced to carry over to the 1040.

You will not be able to prepare a Form 1065 with TurboTax Home & Business; the product is not capable of preparing an income tax return for an entity, such as a multi-member LLC. 

Rather, you need TurboTax Business (link below), which is a different product than TurboTax Home & Business. Note, however, that you will also need a personal income tax preparation product since TurboTax Business is not capable of preparing individual income tax returns.

So why on the "Forms" section for the Home & Business product does it list Form 1065????

There is NOT a Form 1065 listed in the Home & Business edition. 

There is a Schedules K-1 (Form 1065).  A Schedule K-1 from a partnership tax return Form 1065, is not a Form 1065.

TurboTax is a joke. Why the hell would Home and Business NOT include every feature TT Business includes? Absolutely ridiculous. Just found this out this morning as I am trying to file a Form 1065 for the first time. TT is garbage.

@vickydo2075   What kind of LLC?  Are you a Single Member LLC?  If you need to prepare a 1065 business return you need Turbo Tax Business.  

Turbo Tax Business is a separate program from Home & Business.  TT Business is for 1120 Corporation, 1120S Corp, 1065 Partnership or 1041 Estate/Trust returns. Not for self employed independent contractors.  Turbo Tax Business  is not available to do online or on a Mac.  You can buy the Window's version here.  And you can have both TT Business and TT Home & Business (or any personal version) installed on  your computer at the same time.

 

You can buy the Window's version here…..
