I have been on auto delivery for multiple years. My latest computer does not have a CD Rom. It took some time on the website to figure out who to contact. There should be a 1800 number to call. I ended up with a woman in India for online support. She was very helpful and downloaded the software to my account. Overall this years experience for me was not as good as prior years. It could have been due to the frustration of not having someone to call or it could be that I had to scroll down the screens for each topic. Prior years seem to be presented better. Now going to submit my review and someone already has my nickname - really? I have to make up a nickname to submit a review?
Filed by Turbo Tax for six years now. It gets easier every year and the software seems to get better at anticipating my questions. Maybe I am getting used to Turbo Tax now.
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)
Turbo Tax needs to review IRS Publication 915 (2013), paragraph titled "Canadian or German social security benefits paid to U.S. residents." And, include a line in social security income entries for German social security income. AND, some instructions need to be included to explain how these people get total annual amount of German social security payments for tax year (if sent to bank automatically, add up bank entries in statements for that year) because Germany does not automatically send out a year-end statement.
When I did income tax by hand, I had to figure all of the totals and recheck for errors. Everything is done for me now. It takes me much less time and is a lot easier,. Plus with electronic filing, I do not have to worry about the mail for either filing or returns.
