Needs improvement on Additional Medicare Tax
on March 15, 2014
Posted by: prm1
from Texas
More clarity on the process of calculating the additional Medicare tax would have been helpful. My employer withheld an amount that was close to the calculated total liability. Turbo Tax added the extra withholding to my FIT, then calculated the additional Medicare tax as a gross amount. It would have saved me time and heartburn if that calculation had been detailed as I worked through the program.
What's great about it: still very easy to navigate and very thorough
What's not so great: poor explanation of Additional Medicare Tax

Scott's perspective
on March 15, 2014

I have used Turbotax for a number of years now and continue to be amazed at the speed and efficiency of its operation. It is clear that much effort has been put into "perfecting" the functionality of this software.
My only complaint is that some of the detailed instructions (for example, for an excess IRA contribution that I had) were not as clear as they might have been. After reading same, I was still left with a "what do I do know?" situation.
I strongly recommend Turbotax to my family and friends.
What's great about it: Very fast and eficient
What's not so great: A few of the detailed instructions were not as clear as they might have been

I've only used turbo tax. I dont know how it compares to others.
Why bother with a tax preparer. They cant't be any better than this.

2013 tax

several times TT did not carry forward info from previous years.
When I went to e-file it would not let me do it for two or three times- it kept saying i needed to down load current info. yet my TT was 100% up to date according to TT when I looked for updates.

In two cases TT said that i needed to wait for new fed and state forms-- TT will email me when available--- in actual fact what was missing was one piece of info i had left off the form- my mistake, but TT made me think i had to wait for something.
A good feature to add would be a …" what if" capability. this would let me get a rough idea of what taxes would be like if i did something different- next year- e.g. moving IRA to Roth IRA, selling securities--etc It would not be 100% accurate but it could give a pretty good guess at what some of impacts might be. and it could be done without messing up my current year tax info. Kind of like saving a version without impacting the actual info.
even submitting my review was made difficult trying to select a nick name that no one had ever used
What's great about it: average usability,
What's not so great: does not carry forward all info from previous years. at filing time TT would not let me file first two times
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)

TURBO TAX DOES A NICE JOB WITH FEDERAL TAXES. I'VE BEEN USING IT FOR YEARS. LAST YEAR I CHANGED JOBS SO THAT I RESIDE IN ONE STATE AND WORK IN ANOTHER. TURBO TAX SAID I DID NOT NEED TO FILE IN THE OTHER STATE. I WOULD HAVE MISSED A $300 REFUND :o !
What's great about it: FEDERAL TAXES
What's not so great: STATE TAX INTEGRATION
