My husband has an LLC, and I have income from stocks, which program would best serve our purposes?

My wife has a small business and we have a portfolio of stocks and mutual funds. I have used the Home and Business version for years and it has worked great. I'm not sure about the LLC but I think that would be covered as well. All you have to do is answer questions.

I've used Intuit (Quickbooks -not sure what 331 is) for preparation of vendor checks. They work for that.

Well that depends...First talk to your CPA and see what he/she recommends as you will be sharing info with them and it's good to be on the same page. Second, and this is my opinion, avoid this software unless you can help it because once you use it, you will be stuck with them much the way a gambler would be to the Mafia. Depending on which features you use, you have to upgrade every 3 years or they stop working. Yeah. Also, this is a very basic skeletal accounting software and things like payroll, printing tax forms, or even attaching files to invoices ON YOUR OWN computer requires a monthly or annual subscription service which often times costs many times more than the software. Case in point, enhanced payroll costs over $300 a year on top of the software. Read the high star reviews on here. Then see why Intuit would send so many "product managers" to spin greedy marketing practices as "features". Read the positive reviews too but you'll notice many of them are suspiciously cut and pastes from the Intuit website. Also notice how many comments have been removed by amazon to censor negative reviews. That should tell you about the character of this company.

You can go to the Square Trade website and check the FAQs, and possibly call them directly to ask them. The answer "from the horse's mouth" is the best way to go.

Bottom line, it should work. The layout standards of the form are set by the government. So Copy A, etc. should work, or Quickbooks has a form problem. The only wild card would be the 1096 summary form which is not required if you efile your information returns. Otherwise, it too needs to comply to Government determined layout standards. Hope this helps.

You can enter rental income. Within the income page is a line as I recall for rental income. In any case, rental income is ordinary income and there are ways to enter depreciation if needed. I used Turbo Tax Basic when I ran my one person IT business and it accommodated everything I needed, including depreciation. Prior to IT, I worked in a "tax oriented" or "tax avoidance" environment and am familiar with various income tax strategies and I believe that TurboTax is a full blown tax app. The higher priced versions add help, but are unnecessary if you pay attention to the income categories on the "wages & income" page.

It looks like you can by going to their website (http://www.squaretrade.com). I really can't recommend this company enough. They actually did what they said they would do, with no hassle or argument. For the price I paid, my return on investment was complete!

I have never tried to do this myself, but it is my understanding that you would not be hit with an additional charge. (I am assuming of course that this is two returns for the same state. You only get one state included. If you need to file a return for more than one state, you would be hit for $39.95 per additional state).

I don't personally work with Quicken, but I agree with Michele Morris. If there's an option to print 1099's then they will probably work fine.

Turbo Tax Home & Business would be a good fit for your situation. Tax time for me every year was always a time for much stress & loss of sleep. I started using Turbo Tax about 7 years ago that move has greatly simplified tax time.

They are different tools. The business package is for corporate, partnership and things like LLC's. You most likely would still need Turbotax for your personal taxes.

You probably are at the right place to purchase a download of the tax program. This can be frustrating because you will get a link to click on that will start the download to your computer. Then you will have to select "Save" or "Run" (or you can do both). The program is saved to your download folder. You will need to click on "Run" to begin the installation program. When it is installed, you will need to open the program which will give you an opportunity to update the program (it will not run without updates of the federal program). It will probably take you a half-an-hour to do this. If you are not familiar with downloading and installing programs, I suggest you either get someone to do this for you, or go to Staples, Wal-Mart or Sam's Club and buy a disc and install it yourself. You can do it, just don't be disturbed by the possibility that you might mess up something. That is pretty hard to do, and you can probably download again if somehow the download is interrupted. You know, if you have a simple tax return, I would be inclined to use one of the online free tax programs. Even H&R Block has one you can use online. If this is your first return, then that might meet your needs. I stay mad at H&R because they do not offer returning customers their best price, but make you hunt on the internet, watch for sales or deal with rebates. Not the way I would treat my customers.

My husband did the partner CD maybe twice. He did read the information and we discussed our labor plan. But he was not highly involved. I think you'd be fine.

No it will not in my opinion. If you are making and selling widgets it would be good . I would suggest going to sba.gov it has an interactive business plan you can fill out

Schedule C, without a doudt. Unemploryment, any income. Annuities, I'm not 100% sure here, but would say 90% sure it will. It does 1099-d, any long or short stocks, so I see no reason annuities would be left out. FYI. All my Scottrade stuff downloaded into 2011.

Yes it is, but no 1099's which my wife buys separately. The Schedule C we use allows you to put in separate entries. We do not use the Q & A system.
