tax heaven

Great package. First time user and it was very easy. I have manually done them my self for years and this year decided to give it a whirl. Turbo tax return was 175.00 more than what I came up with, covered the cost of software.
Thanks
What's great about it: great walk through the process
What's not so great: not able to print forms.

Crummy experience, over-all
on April 16, 2014

Couldn't easily add information, when I knew which information was needed and where. Couldn't find an edit key, often only the update key was available. Had to keep switching to the forms view, to add data. Used TurboTax last year, couldn't retrieve last year's data, had to manually re-enter everything. Mysteriously, when I did our son's tax this year, all of his data from last year reloaded. Really not too happy with the software performance, this is the worst experience I have had with TurboTax and have used it for several years, in the past.
What's great about it: Nothing positive to say
What's not so great: Hard to use, couldn't retrieve last year's data.

Love how easy it is and it asks all the questions to get the most refund possible. Even a deduction I didn't know I qualified for!
What's great about it: love how it walks me through step by step
What's not so great: Wasn't able to transfer last years Turbo info onto my new laptop.
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)

What happens to the payment sent by mail?
on April 16, 2014
Posted by: 2disappointed0
from Mililani, Hawaii
Got a refund only after the state rejected my e-filing twice. What happened? I go from a large bill to one with a refund. I mailed the check the same day it was e-filled. Now I get a refund. I must now go through the trouble of getting my payment check sent back to me.
What's great about it: Went from a $3,900 payment to a revised $2300 refund
What's not so great: Why the glitch?

Automated as usual, but watch for updates!

The software was very thorough, walking you through the various sections automatically, as you've come to expect. However, I tried several times over several days to get the recommended updates to download with no success or explanation. When it came time to submit my tax form to the IRS, the app refused, saying the updates were mandatory.
If this happens to you, go to Help and type in a search that descries the problem (required updates won't download, for instance).
This is a rather shocking lapse for Intuit - I can imagine the non-computer literate folks who couldn't figure out a way past this on April 15!

What's great about it: The usual automation we've come to love from Turbo-Tax
What's not so great: required updates won't download, preventing your efile!!

Best Tax Software of All Times Continues Again !
on April 16, 2014
Posted by: MarryMeTurboTax
from Saint Louis, MO
I love this software to death! It seems like it gets cheaper every single year between the software cost, the first state add-on, the e-file fee(s), and cost for audit-protection!
I've always used TurboTax since 2008, it has never failed me once, always catches errors (if any), and has consistently gotten me more money for the exact same things than coworkers who don't use TurboTax and my wife whose dad is a CPA.
In 2012, after massive paycuts, I started my first year working from home to generate commission sales / calls / phone-repairs to bring in business to/for my employer's main store location (who then pays me) - so I took the leap and tried filing "Itemized" --- TurboTax opened my eyes! I did not know how much of what I legitimately spend my own money on for work is deductible since my employer does not reimburse me nor pay me for time I work sales at home! TurboTax took the huge amount of tension out of what I thought would be a painstaking process to file itemized.
If you value your money and work full-time, you probably earned the good ol' Government a hefty paycheck off of your own hard earned money!...
SO GET BACK WHAT IS TRULY YOURS! JUST GET TURBOTAX NOW! (Seriously!)
SO GET BACK WHAT IS TRULY YOURS! JUST GET TURBOTAX NOW! (Seriously!)
What's great about it: Easy as heck, takes the headache out of filing itemized, free e-filing, & got $910 more than my family's CPA calculated!
What's not so great: Some itemized descriptions for "Explain This" are WAY too vague to help. 2 Errors b/c $0 =/= [blank]
