Turbo Tax Software 2013
on April 7, 2014

Turbo Tax should make an effort to post answers (from tax professionals)to some of the questions that have no comments from the Community.There should also be more set up instructions for first time Turbo Tax Software users.
What's great about it: Customer friendly after you get through numerous hurdles as a first time user.
What's not so great: Problems with set up & connection.The Community had no answers for some of my questions.

We had to pay this year for the first time in decades but that wasn't the fault of TurboTax. In fact, I know that TurboTax helped me reduce our tax liability by the maximum amount.
What's great about it: TurboTax takes all the worry out of computing & filing taxes. The audit protection is very reassurring.
What's not so great: I can't really think of anything. TurboTax rocks!
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)

Does a good job of supporting all tax topics and placing Info on proper forms and keeps the process organized and flowing.
Fast, responsive flowing from form to form.
However that standard is not maintained in handling Oil and Gas Royalties. the first issue is selecting the appropriate TurboTax version - Do I need Premier? Do I really need Home and Business? Would Deluxe do it? In the fluff of the selections matrix there is no mention of Oil and Gas Royalties, so I bought Home and Business and it supported filing 1 (One) Schedule E form as a business (the only business activity I have). I would think it could be easier and simpler.
What's great about it: Imports last years returns; Imports Investment account activity;
What's not so great: Poor handling of Oil and Gas Royalties

Turbo Tax is terrific!

I am so happy with Turbo Tax. I used to try and do my taxes with no help. It was so hard. I did not understand the terminology the IRS used. With Turbo Tax, the questions were in plain English that I could Understand. I entered all of my information without my head exploding. Yay!!
What's great about it: made doing taxes easy by puting things in "English" instead of complicated jibberish.
What's not so great: Can't think of any.

State Tax Section for GA
on April 7, 2014
Posted by: HClay
from Hahira, GA
GA Form 500 Estimated Tax for 2014: not too much guidance on this section. I still do not understand why we had to pay nearly $1700.00 on Georgia Form 500. I just rounded line 25. If more of the "Explain This" was included, this would have helped me to better understand. If you are a Tax Lawyer or CPA then at that level, its understandable. For a everyday person like myself, walk me through the process so I will know why I'm doing what I'm doing.
What's great about it: Federal Part was easy.
What's not so great: Turbo Tax very vague for novice on GA Form 500

Ouch, I had more to pay!

I have used Turbo-Tax for a number of years and find it simple to use. Because I collect my data through the year, it is easy to input the entries and also easy to review. I use both the guided interview and the direct access to forms. Since I am retired but also have self-employment income, the return is somewhat complicated. I can complete all the entries in a couple of entries (bringing information forward from last year) and then it is a matter of checking and verifying input to see if it is complete and accurate. I used to do the returns manually and dreaded the hours long process of filling in the forms, looking up definitions and calculations required. Turbo-Tax is a breeze in comparison and well worth the small expense. Thank you for helping simplify my life.
What's great about it: The step=by-step interview, simple directions
What's not so great: When one sub step is finished, the program goes back to the beginning of the list - cumbersome
