I like this program, have used it for many years, and plan to continue to use it. I find that the step by step approach is helpful in simplifying the identification of forms that I need. My only difficulty was in learning that I had to move between step by step and other modes to make changes (specifically, removing a request for extension when I solved the problem that was holding up filing my return).
What's great about it: Does all the calculations. Assists in identifying the forms one needs
What's not so great: navigation to undo actions not always transparent. Help not as useful as it used to be.
Seems to me the input screen could be resized to fit the screen without having to scroll down. Also why not have the cursor jump to the next spot for entering the next 1099 info. Seems to me a lot of key strokes can be eliminated.
What's great about it: Almost everything in the program, except....
The program works great and looks the interview style format and the professional style of forms that it creates . The only problem that I ran into was a quite frustrating 25 minutes of going in a loop due to a turbo tax bug that wasnt fixed. no information was available about this problem on the web in the help section . I found the customer tech support and they walked me through all the step needed and then and only then the forms would transmit.
What's great about it: ease of use and interview style questions
What's not so great: computer bug didnt allow my computer to transmit taxes
I need to apply to both Florida and New York State. As I mistook to select Florida States at first and basically most of all need not pay any State tax to Florida, I need to pay additional cost for New York State tax. I hope Turbotax introduce us to select New York State tax at first. So, we need not pay extra cost.
What's great about it: Easy to poperate
What's not so great: Extral cost for non-tax State
In my earlier review I was not happy with the program. After the program refused to let me file with a supposed mistake, I printed out all form and discovered how to overcome the problem. The program was generating a form which was not needed. having traded vehicles, the program generated a form 8824 ( Like kind trade) which I deleted and everything was OK.
