The name field is limited to 40 spaces. For foreign clients sometimes that is not enough. Especially if inputting the name of a foreign trust (Form 1040NR).

Just enter the first 40. IRS doesn't care.

The more I know the more I don’t know.

The IRS does not care, but the clients do. Also between taxpayer and spouse, it is hard to decide which first 40 chars to input.

Is this the IRS limitation or the software?

This is not an Intuit restriction, it is an IRS restriction. E-file does not support names that long.
