TurboTax fees can be deducted if the software is used to prepare business tax returns, such as for a sole proprietorship (Schedule C), partnership, or corporation. These fees are considered a business expense. However, if TurboTax is used solely for preparing personal tax returns, the cost is not deductible. For mixed-use (e.g., both personal and business returns), only the portion attributable to business use is deductible. For example, if 60% of the software's use is for business purposes, then 60% of the cost can be deducted. It's important to allocate the cost accurately and keep records supporting the business use percentage.
