A burden off my shoulders!
on April 1, 2014
Posted by: JoeGebs
I never would have made it on my own. I started a law office in 2013 and never realized what I had to do to get my taxes done. Praise Turbo-Tax for a job well done. Also, I purchased the Audit Defense. I'm not a tax lawyer and I never want to be one so I'm real happy someone will be there to help me if I get audited.
What's great about it: The walk-through
What's not so great: Nothing
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)
Occasionally, I find myself bypassing certain input loops of information without knowing that, in fact, there was an important requirement. It would be nice if the program, in effect, said "pay attention here".
Also, there are some complexities in the Form 1065 SEP calculation not explained well. Example: How should the SEP contribution be accounted for on your (non-tax) books so that it can be integrated into TurboTax?
I add that the TurboTax program has been substantially upgraded over the years and much frustration with old versions (and with IRS forms) alleviated.
What's great about it: The autocalculation is nice.
What's not so great: Missed loops requiring attention. Form 1065 SEP/IRA info
This year was the first time in the past several years that I was able to retrieve the past year's information and it really helped! Overall ease in using Turbo is excellent.
Every year TurboTax has gotten better. I appreciate being able to save a return in process, exit and return to the same spot next time. E-file with the IRS and multiple states is a great convenience. I appreciate being able to review a hard copy of my returns before e-filing and also saving as a PDF.
What's great about it: Step by step interviews are clear, comprehensive and easy to follow
