Turbo Tax saves me a lot of money by not having to go to H&R Block or an accountant. With all the help and explanations that are in Turbo Tax there is no reason why I couldn't do this. I will be back next year!
Been using Turbo Tax for over 20 years. This program makes doing your own taxes seem simple and provides a sense confidence in the process for way less money than professional assistance.
I loved the ability to easily flip between Personal and Business sections and work on different tax sections. I also like the access to the community section so that I can ask and get answers to simple common questions quickly.
Biggest drawback this year for me, was for the first time the program saved automatically. Sometimes I like to investigate different tax scenarios and NOT save the file. For example: 1) compare the effect of putting a particular business purchase in different areas of return 2) investigate the effect of IRA contribution size or 3) examine the effect of different figures during the Quarterly tax payments section which is several screens long.
All in all, thanks for the great program. Turbo Tax makes a taxing situation easier to handle and I'll never use another solution!
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)
We've used the TurboTax Home and Business program for our personal taxes and the TurboTax Business program for our partnership business for about 20 - 25 years. I remember with shudders what it was like to do our taxes with pen and paper and trying to read and understand the instructions that came with the varied tax forms. The thing I like the most about the programs is that the programmers cover all the tax bases and I do not have to worry about what I may have missed. The peace of mind that I get when I have finished our taxes with TurboTax is worth every dime the program costs.
