Turbo Tax is easy to us and covers every area I need to have covered. I also like to have the ability to go back and recheck all my entered data. E-File is also very convenient and direct deposit seals the deal for me, all at a great price.
It is really simple enough. I prepare everything ahead so that I know that I have all that I should need to complete in one sitting. The biggest problem I have had is that I don't pay attention and make mistakes. Three years in a row I started by putting my 1099R info into the W-2 forms. Then I have to go back and erase it and start over.Other than that I usually end up, taking the standard deductions and wishing that I had just done that to begin with. I have used Turbo Tax several years and don't have any complaints.
What's great about it: I appreciate the e-file the most.
What's not so great: Seems to take me longer than it should, but not complaining.
i've been using turbo tax since 2008. that's 7 years that i have been using the deluxe program because i own a home and have itemized deductions. if you're afraid of using unfamiliar software programs.....don't be. it's simple. when you efile your taxes you'll feel like you really accomplished something.
What's great about it: easy
What's not so great: should get more than 1 state efile
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)
I have used Turbo Tax for about 20 years. This edition I liked the least. Too often I had to go to the forms because otherwise I could not enter data such as sales tax even though I had a $3500 deduction for sales tax on a new car alone. Help not always available.
What's great about it: got it done
What's not so great: took too long and some questions not clear and help not available
I worked for H & R Block the year they implemented online filing. Worked with DOS. Having said that, TurboTax is a breeze! I will never use anything else. The step by step walk through makes it so easy to use and follow, I don't have to worry about forgetting a deduction or a form.
What's great about it: The walk through is so thurogh and easy to understand it's hard to make a mistake or forget anyting
What's not so great: I have not found anything I don't like about TurboTax
