Each year, it gets easier to prepare our taxes with Turbo Tax. The program just keeps getting better. As long as one keeps good records, accessing them makes it easy to continue through the program. Both Federal and State taxes are easily and quickly prepared!
THANKS FOR PROVIDING AN EXCELLENT TAX PREPARING TOOL!!!!!
Helping a disabled sister, this makes things easier for me as I handle all her affairs........can make sure I don't miss anything that I am aware of in her daily life that can apply to taxes.
Can't use same casino address, fed ID and state ID on all W2Gs You have to type the same information over and over. Donations have it. Why doesn't W2G forms. Going to look for a tax program that does it next year. Had to resubmit the tax returns twice last year because of incorrect Fed ID# on one W2G entry. Had to retype the same information for the same casino more then 20 times. Send an email if you fix this issue for 2014. Otherwise TurboTax seems fairly easy to use. Thanks Gary.
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)
Second year using turbo tax. For the most part I think turbo tax has a great system that is easy to use. I love the summary screen which shows the progress on the return.
Problems. Last years return and this years return had problems with the updates of turbo tax. It prompts me that i need to download the updates. I download the updates and it tells me I am up to date. Then I proceed through the tax program and when my tax return is reviewed it tells me I need to update my turbo tax again. I did this 4 or 5 times when I finally gave up and send my taxes in without the up dates it was prompting me to use. Second issue. Once i chose i wanted to ammend my tax return I could not get rid of the option. I even followed a trouble shooting suggestion someone from turbo tax wrote. I went to federal income tax, went to other taxes, and chose NO for wanting to amend a return. Then when i reviewed my tax return, the system asked why I was amending my return.
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion), I bought or sold investments
TurboTax has really taken the stress and anxiety away from doing my taxes. My wife and I would normally spend hours at our tax guy's office on our day off to get this daunting task done. Now, I do it in the comfort of my own home and at my own pace.
I used Turbo for 10 years. This is the last year. Completely unreliable for info needed. Not one question was ever answered. The taxes have been filed, but I will have a professional re-file next year. I have never had issue with filing taxes and have them in by 02/01 every year. I have never owed taxes. This year I owe a whopping amount and am retired. You say I need 1040 V, and then don't have it. Worst money I ever spent was buying Turbo this year!!! I would not give even one star, but you require it!
