I've used turbo tax for years. My husband is self-employed. We paid for someone to do our taxes for a couple of years which cost us hundreds of dollars. After looking over the tax documents I decided I could do it myself. I filed our taxes for a year or two by hand and then I discovered turbo tax. It was a lot cheaper than paying someone, and it was a lot easier than doing it by hand. I LOVE turbo tax!!
When going back to review or make changes you need to go through the whole section instead of just the part you need to fix. Easier way to go a specific spot would be nice
Overall still the best program out there. Easy to use and quick and for the many years I have use it never had any issues with errors or with the IRS
What's great about it: Carryover from last year and reviews at the end
All in all, this is a great product. Very easy to use with quick explanations on what each deduction is and whether you qualify for them. I've been doing my own taxes for years and only tried this product this year. It actually found me a larger return than I normally have. Very Cool :)
What's great about it: easy to use, asked all the questions with easy access to extra info when needed. found me several extras I missed
What's not so great: Only con is that the state efile doesn't tell you up front that it charges. I had to backtrack to undo it
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)
This is the quick efficient way to deal with the yearly income tax day. Turbo tax is full of helpful hints and suggestions, The Turbo Tax progression walks you right through the process giving you confidence and exploring all the possible tax credits available.
What's great about it: This is the best deal since sliced bread was introduced
