    Can't efile without an EFIN.    With the software you can prepare returns, print, and mail.  Cannot electronically file.

    Not a quick process to get an EFIN.   You will most likely need to find a local tax practitioner that is willing to efile your self-prepared  return.

    You wont be able to Efile using ProSeries unless you have an EFIN....you should have purchased TurboTax Business, not ProSeries. TurboTax would allow Efiling for people that aren't professionals.
