A warm welcome to the Community, steve-bleymaier.

 

The "Tax Checklist" in QuickBooks Self-Employed isn't an option for now. Rest assured that this will be made available anytime this January 2021.

 

In the meantime, you can check this article for the other tasks you can do to prepare your taxes: QuickBooks Self-Employed - Annual taxes guide.

 

Once you have the option to transfer your data, ensure that both accounts (QBSE and TurboTax) are connected for it to work. Make sure to review the information before you send them to TurboTax.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Sign in to QuickBooks Self-Employed.
    1. Start here. Don’t enter any information in TurboTax before you import it.
  2. Select the Tax Checklist.
  3. Select Review final tax summary.
  4. After reviewing the information, select Send to TurboTax in the bottom right of the screen.
  5. Select It's OK to send my info to send your information to TurboTax.

I do not have a tax checklist option.  I am Canadian using the Canadian Self employed quick books and the self employed turbo tax software.  How can I import my QB into turbo tax?

Hi there Shawn C,

 

Making sure that your taxes are entered correctly is an important part of running your business. QuickBooks Self-Employed is a robust tool that can help you keep track of your total expenses and sales for a year. I can provide some insight.

 

There is no direct way to connect QuickBooks Self-Employed and TurboTax Self-Employed for the data to transfer over automatically. What I can recommend is going to view and print the reports for your year in QuickBooks Self-Employed in order to have your total sales and expenses enter into TurboTax.
