Got my refund and a headache....
on April 15, 2014
Posted by: Beach20Lover26
I have to say that overall it was an easy process but I did hit a few glitches. When I went to review my tax form the system would not tell me what the error was and refused to allow to go further. I also attempted to update it and it would not update until the next day. That was the most frustrating part because there was no guidance in helping me fix the errors. It just there is an error, find it on your own.
What's great about it: I enjoyed being guided through the process of my tax returns and it made the process seem easier.
What's not so great: My system did not update properly until 12 hours later. This lead me to being frustrated.
Turbo tax has made made doing my taxes very easy. I do not have to calculate or work hard at figuring m refund or payment. I would highly recommend Turbo Tax to anyone I know.
What's great about it: Very easy to follow. Everything was calculated for me.
Easy to navigate, particularly going back and forth from interview format to seeing your forms/worksheets in progress.....running total of refund or taxes due is a helpful feature......
I have used TurboTax for years and expect to continue doing so. The ability to import data and being guided through the process are very helpful.
For the first time, however, I was unable to e-file my nonresidential state return. (I noticed that this affected other taxpayers who are living overseas.) I trust that TurboTax will fix this problem next year.
What's great about it: Easy to collect information and file federal return
What's not so great: Could not e-file my nonresidential state return
THIS YEARS VERSION WAS THE WORST YET WITH TOO MANY UPDATES IN ORDER TO GET TAXES DONE. IT WULD BE BETTER TO RECEIVE TURBO TAX LATER IN THE YEAR THAN BE STOPPED SO OFTEN FOR AN UPDATE.
THE UPDATES DID DOWNLOAD FASTER THIS YEAR ON A POSITIVE NOTE.
What's great about it: I CAN WORK FROM MY DESK AT HOME
What's not so great: IT IS LABOROUS WITH ALL OF THE UPDATES NEEDED TO COMPLETE TAX RETURN
Very helpful software. I start using Turbo tax in 2007, when I had cero knowledge of taxes... Years past, and learned about it, and I can tell how much these software has improved. Now I love using it, because is giving me the tranquility of not error in my return. Thanks turbo tax team!
What's great about it: Very easy to follow
What's not so great: slow to download the last update for 2013
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion), I moved
