Worst Version of Turbo Tax ever!!!!
on April 16, 2014
Posted by: madSeattle
from Seattle, WA
I've used Turbo Tax many times but this version had LOTS of problems, missing forms, lack of adequate explanations, no easy links to IRS forms.
The most difficult part was having sold a car (and bought a new one) that I used for work and for my private practice.
What's great about it: Hmmm, well, it asked a lot of questions.
What's not so great: Many forms not ready - even by march. Endless error loops. Difficulty getting info to complete forms, need more..
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion), I bought or sold investments

Needs improvement

I made an error the first time I did my state tax and had to go back and repeat the whole thing 5-6xs before I could figure out how to get it to update with new info. Little explanation of state tax forms.
What's great about it: easier than paperfiling
What's not so great: expensive, state tax for NY had errors

another great tax filing - thanx turbo-tax

everything is great again. I've used turbo tax for over ten years. The only problem this year was trying to correct double entries in my large purchase sales tax entries. I purchased a truck and a fifth wheel in 2013. When I first went through a draft for 2013 in January, I did some entries. Then today 4/15 (late night) I had to enter them again, but they had doubled up. I went to the form and was able to drop the double entries and everything was fine after that..
I really appreciate turbo tax for the schedule C version again!!!
Cheers

TT veteran
on April 16, 2014

I've been using TT for over 10 years and appreciate it's user-friendly, step-by-step process, auto-fill from previous year's return and easy electronic filing, as well as the free state version. It has helped me become more organized and about how I keep my tax records and paperwork so I'm ready to file when the time comes.
My only concerns are that I have discovered that it is too easy to make a duplicate entry (ie. enter a 1099 form twice) and not have it caught either at the time of entry or during the review for errors. Also, as my tax situation has become more complicated, I find some of the helpful explanations and descriptions are somewhat lacking in detail.

What's great about it: Easy entry, great step-by-step process, helpful guides, a product for every taxpayer situation, reasonable price.
What's not so great: Too easy to make a duplicate entry that isn't caught on the review for errors, more explanation needed in some areas

Made filing tax return a breeze

It does not require one to be a tax expert, anybody who can read and understand English and type can follow the straightforward instructions. It guides you totally from beginning to end. I've been using it for as long as I remember filing taxes!
What's great about it: Such a great program and easy to use

Request to obtain a pin slowed my filing process
on April 16, 2014
Posted by: JRey2013
from Central, TX
It would be ideal to request pins early at the start of the program prior to filing to reduce the amount of time wasted waiting for the website to respond back with the pins. If the program had an auto fill form for the website to request the pin and grab the information would have saved even more time as the website busy notification created a repeat of entry requests. I had to repeat entry 3 times due to the busy notification which delayed me filing the forms on time.
What's great about it: Final Review had hyperlinks
What's not so great: Gov website was tied up
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion), I bought or sold investments

from silicon valley
that is a wish that i hope you'll implement next year.
if i choose alarger font, make the frame stay the same size, so that I don't need to move up and down to click continue....
What's great about it: save our mouse wrist
What's not so great: less space for information
Pros: I moved

Program Won't allow dashes in the W-2G sections
on April 16, 2014
Posted by: RRJJOOHHNN
from Hutchinson, MN
W-2G section #13. State/Player's state indentification number section won't allow dashes in the number and causes you to correct the problem just before you send off and transmit the State or Federal Returns, by that time it's too late to try and correct the problem and in turn makes your return being filed late which caused late fees on my State and Federal returns........It took 45 minutes to correct all the errors and finally it would accept my return LATE!!!! Very bad programming error on your part!! I wonder how many more people had the same thing happen??? Thousands and multiply that by the late fees and I could pay off my house mortgage 1000 times over.......
What's not so great: Made me file return LATE!!
