Prepare my own tax return

Hello, What's the best way to prepare my own tax return on ProConnect Online? Should I add my firm as client and prepare taxes? How I can import the documents from quickbooks online?

If an entity has data in the QBO format, which is able to import to ProConnect Tax Online, as:

https://proconnect.intuit.com/community/help-articles/help/generating-a-tax-return-for-proconnect-tax-online-in-quickbooks/00/5832

And if you are a paid and authorized user for ProConnect Tax Online, I don't see how the system knows or cares that this is "your" own work.

I'm not aware that you can import from your own books in QBOA but I may be wrong.

@qbteachmt @IntuitAustin Would you happen to know?  Thanks!

It doesn't look like that is supported, I just tried to do my own return in QBOA and import into PTO like I do my clients, THIS SHOULD BE FIXED I love the linking feature and mapped all of the accounts and now I can't use it 🙎

@mocpa be aware that you will need to have a EFIN to e-file, even if it is just your own return. You will be able to prepare and print a return to mail without the EFIN. 

Answers are easy. Questions are hard!
