The fastest way to do your simple tax returns
on April 15, 2014
Posted by: fyreman
from Asheville, NC
I started using Turbo Tax a few years ago, it has been perfect for me, I use intuit quickbooks and turbo tax to manage my small business and personal taxes. Both great products and you don't have to be a CPA.
What's great about it: quick, easy, and done from home in a few hours, easy to navigate
What's not so great: I love Turbo Tax
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)

Would be nice if some one personally looks at the return for an addtional cost- just an added feature.
What's great about it: Simple to use and provides addtional details when necessary

Turbotax is a faithful yearly friend

Have been using Turbotax for about 16 years. It is a faithful yearly friend. I've never been audited, but purchase the audit protection anyway, just to make sure we are covered.
What's great about it: business expense section has a great guide
What's not so great: wish they would eliminate the state filing fee

I have used Turbo Tax for 4 years now. It has been easy and even though I owe money each year it's never as bad as I think it's going to be.
What's great about it: it's easy and user friendly
What's not so great: IRS is not a fun date.

Works for Fed and State, FAILS on local taxes
on April 15, 2014

I've used TurboTax for almost 20 years, and it peaked in usability a few years ago. Today the interface is a bit slicker, but by now the eccentricities SHOULD have been ironed out.
Printing is a complete hassle. If you're like me, you live in mortal fear of picking up a stack of Fed, State and several municipality returns and trying to separate them without mixing up pages. The printing process helps out in no way whatsoever.
Ideally, you would be prompted to print each return individually, and not have to backtrack if you want to first print your filing copy and after that another "for your records". Mixing in the "save to computer" option only makes things worse, as you find you're "finished" without having printed ANYTHING on paper. There is a HUGE margin for improvement.
City taxes are another area where T.T. falls apart. I had multiple W2s for 2013, but only one of them had income that applied to a particular city, Pontiac, Michigan. By the time I had completed the "step-by-step" process, EVERY W2 had its income attributed to Pontiac, and I was expected to pay several hundreds of dollars in city tax, EVEN THOUGH the tax had been deducted from the appropriate employer before I was even paid. This information had been entered via the W2 entry, but was ignored by T.T.
I had to dig through the worksheets to find a simple little box that marked each employer "excluded" from city tax- a box that could easily have been taken care of by the step-by-step process. NOW I can get my $10 refund rather than pay $250 in unnecessary tax.
What's great about it: Federal and State work reasonably well
What's not so great: Printing is a convoluted mess, local tax programing is incomplete
