Review of Turbo Tax 2013
on April 5, 2014

Remember where I was when I close the program and start there when I start the program.
Be able to print double sided forms. The program should be smart enough to know when a form is two sided and be able to print both sides on one sheet to save paper.
What's not so great: When reopening the program to continue, it will always start at the beginning. It will not remember where you stop.

Finally we can e-file as married jointly!
on April 5, 2014
Posted by: SoCalGeof
I've been using TurboTax for over a decade to prepare and file both our federal and state (California) income taxes. The last few years prior to the 2013 tax year had been rather cumbersome and time-consuming because we were not allowed to file our taxes as a married couple until this year. We have business income and investment income from multiple sources, and both of those had been quite challenging to manage between the federal and state returns. FINALLY we are able to use a straight-forward process to prepare both our federal and state returns that is fully supported by TurboTax--I didn't encounter any situations that it couldn't handle this time around. Still, I think my many years of experience in preparing my own taxes has been essential in making the process go smoothly. I'm not sure how easily I could've done it had I lacked experience. Next year should go even more smoothly since I should be able to import this year's returns--I couldn't do that from 2012 because of all the changes related to our marital status. Unfortunately, TurboTax doesn't let you import from multiple past returns, nor pick and choose what information gets imported--it's basically all or nothing. Either way, I'm satisfied with the product and plan to use it again for our 2014 taxes.
What's great about it: handles all our current personal and business situations
What's not so great: couldn't import prior year returns due to status change

Amazing! Wish I had done this a long time ago

This was the first year I used Turbo Tax after having an accountant do my return for years. I'm not easy and I have a complicated return. I took advantage of the paid support TurboTax offers. Worth every penny!
Next year I will attempt my corporate return as well.
What's great about it: Excellent support! Very thorough.
What's not so great: Nothing
Pros: I bought or sold investments

I liked the program. Easy to use. Didn't like that I had to pay to file my state tax return. I already paid for the program, why should I have to pay for the state return???
What's great about it: easy tax prep and good program
What's not so great: Had to pay for state.

Attention to Detail

Turbo tax is very comprenhensive and easy to follow. I appreciate the dual levels of completion it offers - EasyGuide allows for step by step detailed analysis or basic "Explore on my own" input. I have used Turbo Tax for the past two years and plan to try it this year as well.
What's great about it: Very easy to follow

Glad I am done but not happy about the outcome

I cannot believe that everytime you need to go back, to a particular area, it clears the information and have to enter it again! It should also include sample forms (pictures of how the forms look). If I do well this year, I just might go to a professional tax preparer.
What's great about it: I like knowing I can do things
What's not so great: Not very user friendly nor easy to get a hold of someone to assist you with the issues
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)

Fast and Easy- First timer

I've never done taxes on my own before. I've always gone to some professional to help me out. While commercials make it seem quick and painless, I've never had an experience where I wasn't required to wait and wait.
Turbotax made it so fast and it did all the legwork. Easy instructions and a simple "click to continue" format made it the best way to get a refund, without the hassle.
What's great about it: Easiest and most thorough way to do taxes
What's not so great: Turbotax can't find public files that I didn't have (like from the DMV)
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)
