Primed for a Refund!
on October 11, 2014
Posted by: coltkc

I love the way that it tracks your status of how much you owe / or what your refund is all the way through. I allowed me to adjust the numbers as needed and find the best refund for me. For someone who is not good at accounting such as myself, this program is great!
What's great about it: Was quick to fill out and kept me apprized of my refund / amount due all the way through.
What's not so great: I wish that the software did a better job of taking information off my last years return instead of me doing it.
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)

I have been using Turbo Tax for many years and wouldn't use any other software to do my taxes.

By far the best overall tax program.
On the K-1 Summary Page within the Income section, it would be nice to know, when viewing the list of K-1s from prior year, whether or not you've already addressed each of them for this year. The program does catch this in the error check if you need to edit or delete a particular K-1, but it would be good to have a quick visual check that tells you this prior to the error check.
What's great about it: Covers everything very thoroughly
What's not so great: Could use more detail vs prior year in a couple of places
Pros: I bought or sold investments

More cumbersome than ever

I was particularly annoyed with East Step, which has gotten so generic that it specifically instructed me to enter information in the wrong place, or twice, or not at all. After completing Easy Step, I had to go through the forms and correct the mistakes, some of which were not easy to find. I would have been just as well off to ignore Easy Step, but if I were to do that, I might miss something important.
What's great about it: You have so much of my past information that switching elsewhere will require a lot more data entry.
What's not so great: This program gets more complicated and convoluted every year.

Thank You Turbo Tax

I have been using Turbo Tax for almost 10 years now and I have a complicated return each year. The step by step instructions work great regardless of your skill set or tax knowledge. I highly recommend to anyone who doesn't want to pay some place a chunk of your money when they use the same program you would.
What's great about it: Ease of Use
What's not so great: None Really
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion), I bought or sold investments

Dreaded Job Made Easier
on October 12, 2014

All in all Turbo Tax is great. However, the step-by-step guide is not easily understandable when filling out Schedule E for a rental house when your circumstances are that you just bought the rental but had to make repairs before it was available to rent. More explanation is necessary. The program made it seem I couldn't deduct expenses made during the year since I didn't collect any rent. I had to do further research & play with the program to figure it out.
What's great about it: You decide if you want the step-by-step interview or not
What's not so great: Schedule E for rent house not easily understood

What's not so great: Not sure where info is going on forms
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion), I bought or sold investments
