Tax return

Angel46701 — Wed, 11 Feb 2026 10:31:28 GMT

I am unable to figure my estimated return because the system wouldn’t allow me to input the loss from selling my company last year. I do not have the money to pay up front to file taxes. I am wondering if a tax pro can look at my taxes and see if there will be a refund and if there will be then file them and collect payment from the refund. My accountant last year said there would be a refund but that was before I pulled 25k out of my children’s college accounts.

An Intuit tax pro (Expert) will not review your tax scenario unless you pay for LIVE Assisted or Full Service.

I don’t understand the problem. You can fill out your return without paying. Then if you want to file or print you have to pay if you use Deluxe or Premium. You need to use Premium to report sales. If your refund is big enough you can have the fees deducted. But there is an Extra $40 Refund Processing Service charge (45 in California) to have fees deducted.

What forms of payment does Turbo Tax accept?

You can get a prepaid Visa card at Walmart or somewhere. Which is good because it saves you the Extra $40 Refund Processing Service charge (45 in California) and your refund comes directly to you and doesn't go through the 3rd party bank to take the fees out.
