STRESS FREE!
on April 6, 2014
Posted by: KKD965
from LAS VEGAS, NV
THANK YOU TURBOTAX! NO STRESS, NO WORRIES, SMOOTH. SEE YOU NEXT YEAR!
What's great about it: WALKED ME RIGHT THROUGH EVERYTHING. DOUBLE CHECKED EVERYTHING
What's not so great: WOULD PREFER ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS. YOU MUST HAVE FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS. YOU COULD USE A DROP DOWN BOX.
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)

Generally easy to use. Although navigation does not bring you back to where you left off. Also, negatives were K-1 data and Form 1116. These 2 items may just be too complex for TurbTax..
Pros: I bought or sold investments

Make it audit friendly
on April 6, 2014
Posted by: Greggo27
I had 129 1099-B entries.
To help me see that my entries line by line are correct. add
another column for net gain/loss. That will tell me if my numbers are correct for sales and cost, line by line.

Sales type pages have one tiny shortcut icon at the top left of
the page. Increase the font size and place the icon top left AND
bottom right.

What's not so great: 1099-B line entries not audit friendly. Sales category pages numbered poorly.

Turbo tax gets worse every year
on April 6, 2014
Posted by: Blackbelt1
from Olympia, WA
I've been using Turbo Tax for 12 years. This is the worst version I've ever seen. This year it tried to add a schedule C to my return--I was an employee only. Turbo Tax couldn't seem to understand that i did not own or run a business in 2013. I had to pay an accountant to fix the return on Turbo Tax.
What's great about it: None i can think of
What's not so great: Gets more user unfriendly every year
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)

Quick and Easy

I have been using TurboTax for over 15 years. I find it incredibly easy to use. Just answer the questions and enter the numbers. TurboTax fills out all the forms and does all the math.
For those who are deciding which product to buy, I found TurboTax Basic has everything I need as a typical homeowner with a family. Start there, if you find you need a higher level you have the option of upgrading.
TurboTax has the ability to import W-2 information from your employer and this year I used the import tool for the 1099's from my bank and brokerage. Wow, did that make that painless.
Overall, great product, highly recommended.
