I thought I was going to need this home and business product but apparently I really didn't need it. It was kind of confusing with so many questions that did not apply to my situation can be overwhelming. The help tips that were offered with each question was helpful in answering any questions during the way.
What's great about it: ask questions and get fast answers
What's not so great: takes you from beginning every time you click on heading
Pros: I had a baby, My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion), I moved
I've used Accountants. Turbo Tax is more detailed then my Accountant ever was. I tried the "cheaper" competitor product, Tax Cut, and it did not compare. It was "cheaper", both in price and quality as well as it didn't feel as detailed or complete. I actually worried it may not be accurate after finding several spelling errors in the programs questions. Ugh. I went back to Turbo Tax and won't try anything else. Turbo Tax has a 16 year record of success with me.
What's great about it: Easy step by step no matter what the tax situation
What's not so great: It's takes more time than dropping documents off at a CPA
Excellent. I have been using TurboTax or MacInTax for over 20m years. I like product and intend to continue using. Step-by-step is the best way to get through the many tax requlatory requirements. I have complete confidence in final product that I e-mail to IRS and KY Revenue Cabinet. Keep up good work.
What's great about it: Easy Use
What's not so great: Estimated Tax computations confusing.
If I want to go down a certain path... why?... because I can... and then realize that I don't want to go down this path, I all I do is hit the back button until I'm back where I started except that, you have decided to include forms needed from going down that path, except now I probably do not need those forms. Yes, it's easy enough to remove the unnecessary forms once you figure out what is going on. My saving grace this year was my ability to import data for my K-1. Crossing my fingers....
What's great about it: Easy navigation
What's not so great: Navigation Heck (K-1 processing) and cryptic error check descrip
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion), I bought or sold investments
