For years i did my taxes by hand just fine, but with all the laws and regulations introduced by the IRS, I find it nearly impossible to wade through the pages and pages of forms. Turbo Tax is almost fun (if you get a refund) to use and leaves no excuse for most folks to hire "professionals" to do their taxes. As with anything involving law, if you have real messy tax issues, it is always smart to get some help. I highly recommend Turbo Tax for most retirees, working individuals, small business, and such.
What's great about it: Easy to used and follow steps.
What's not so great: Too many updates coming down the pipes. Do I file early or wait?
All in all I could not believe how easy it was. I had not done my own taxes in the last four years. I kept putting it off and really dreading it. However, I was actually very surprised how easy it was to complete not to mention the short amount of time it took. If you have all your paperwork together, the ease of the forms makes one would wonder why you ever took it to a tax preparer!
What's great about it: Easy language to understand what is needed.
What's not so great: The education portion for my child was a bit tougher since she had a scholarship.
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)
For some reason lacking proper explanation, I had to go all the way back and reconstruct my fed tax return in order to graduate to state, then complete the filing process. Maybe you can track and see what exactly the glitch was. But it was frustrating to this customer.
What's great about it: Intuitive
What's not so great: Had to redo for some explainable reason
Over all one of the easiest programs to use for your taxes because unless your an accountant, or in the white house coming up with this stuff, it is like trying to learn rocket since on your first day. The program walks you right through it.
What's great about it: Easy Step by step instructions
What's not so great: Didn't see place to count office supplies on deductions.
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)
