This sounds too good to be true. I go online to the free sites only to be told in the end how much I would have to pay to file. Usually it is around 500.00 bucks.
I can see if it is a personal file, but we are a really, really small business. So this may exclude us?

The scope of tax preparation excludes a business with more than a single employee, inventory, depreciation, or a net loss. I think there might be a couple of others as well.

We also can't do the return if you want to claim business use of the home or if you have expenses over $50,000. To clarify what Bob said, you can't have any employees besides yourself.
