fwiw Leslie, I find the turbo tax software programs to be real easy to follow along with - just answer all the questions and it plugs everything into the forms for you. We don't have a small business so have never had to do that type of tax, but I am sure TT has the proper program to guide a self-employed/small business owner. Especially since he doesn't have employees, benefits he's paying, etc. I would think those type of taxes would be the easiest to do for business owners.
