I'm retired but have e-published. Filled the 1099-misc. info but then had to file that I'm self employed. Okay... so far. But it kept telling me I had to check a box at the top of the Sched. C to indicate my business address and personal address were the same. Well, no such box existed in what I was being shown. Had to fish around, trying out a few things and finally wrote in "same" on the bottom line I was being shown despite the fact that the instructions told me it was a box at the top of the form. Most confusing.

foreign income exclusion needs explanation

The foreign income exclusion is not really explained well. We had to spend quite a bit of time outside of TT to figure out what it was doing to calculate our tax.
What's not so great: foreign income exclusion needs explanation
Pros: I moved

Why is there a complete failure to finish e-file ? [no errors to prevent e-file]
What's not so great: In last 2 yerars, e-file has taken too long without cause

1013 Turbo Experience
on April 7, 2014

from Texas
Another pleasant experience in filing. No complaints. HInts are useful, carrying over information from previous years filings accelerates the process greatly. The ability to import data from organizations where we have investments greatly reduces the likelihood of errors.
What's great about it: Quick, very straight forward, handles all types of income.
What's not so great: None

TurboTax Basic 2013
on April 7, 2014
Posted by: ACUR
Overall I like TurboTax. I have used the product successfully for the past 16 years. The last 2 years I have gotten an error in the final check process. The error involves the local estimated tax section. I have to re-enter the "total payments" have I already entered this data previously during the step-by-step question process. I would like this feature to be fixed/improved in future versions.
What's great about it: 1. good step by step process, 2. easy to use, 3. lets you move back to confirm or correct information
What's not so great: Local tax estimates section needs improvement.
