More thorough than I expected
on April 5, 2014
Posted by: DougE1964
from Michiana
I needed the Business and Home version because I have an insurance and financial services company and am paid on multiple 1009s. In addition, I'm retired military, so my pension is also on a 1099, and I have VA disability payments. TurboTax seemed to go on and on and on asking all kinds of questions that I thought would never apply to me, but then, once I got really deep into the weeds, I started finding things that my professional preparer missed during the past two years of filing. If it wasn't for an out-of-state business trip I had to take, I'd have had the same preparer do my taxes again this year. Who knows what else she might have missed?! I made several phone calls to my regular preparer and asked why she hadn't taken certain deductions in the previous two years. She simply missed them, so now I'll be filing amended returns for 2011 and 2012!
This version of TT cost me less than what I had been paying my professional preparer and saved me considerably more. Although it's not as quick and easy as taking my taxes to someone else, it seems to prove the old adage that if you want it done right, do it yourself. With TT, it took longer, but I was ultimately responsible and made sure I used all the tools available to me to ensure I minimized the taxes I owed!
What's great about it: Very, Very Detailed
What's not so great: Sometimes it seemed too detailed; went on forever

SOFTWARE WOULD BE BETTER IF ONE COULD NAVIGATE BETTER FROM 1040 TO APPROPRIATE SCHEDULES WITHOUT HAVING TO BE DEPENDENT UPON INTERVIEW PROCESS

I have been a customer of Turbo Tax for many years. I have been trying to print out a paper copy of my return but I can't.
Instructions as to how to address this problem are not sufficient. What good is this program if you can't print out a return ?
What's not so great: Unable to print out a paper copy

This will be about the eighth year I've used TurboTax. It carried me through the subtleties of my wite's home business. It helped with the college financial experience. If you keep good records, you should have no trouble using it.
What's great about it: Takes you through step by step
What's not so great: Asks some questions that were challenging for a layman to answer

TurboTax is generally easy to use except I did have some difficulty finding entries for extimated tax paid & state tax credits. Without proper prompts these items may be missed.
What's great about it: Found it easy to prepare & file.
What's not so great: Very difficult to file an amended return last year.
