Used TT for years but this time...
on March 15, 2014
Posted by: Whitmel
On our first time thru TT showed our 1040ES as amounting to $2800 a quarter. Second time thru it dropped to $2300. Only after updating TT and then, essentially, starting from scratch were we able to get the 1040ES to show what we knew was correct. The main problem seemed to be the fact that my military pension witholding amounts were not accounted for at the outset.
What's great about it: Imported all our financial data
What's not so great: Took three tries and an update to get the 1040ES to reflect our actual amount

Considerable confusion and much time was spent due to the fact that some Fidelity data comes from Fidelity Investments and some from National Financial services. This caused a lot of "errors" in the Error check section. Other wise I would have given Turbo Tax 5 star rating
What's great about it: thorough and accurate
What's not so great: difficult to get some questions answered
Pros: I bought or sold investments

needs some improvement

I fill out taxes for my elderly relatives and the 3rd party designee is important to them. The federal did no prompt me for a name and checking yes but I filled it in on the forms view. The IL state tax I could do neither. I filed state tax manually and wrote it in the field.
Overall a Good+ but not excellent
What's great about it: ease to use, saved me time, accurate
What's not so great: Not the best on filling out IL state form, missing 3rd party designee
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion), I bought or sold investments

Weird Problem
on March 15, 2014
Posted by: lisakitty86
When making up my deductions, TurboTax arbitrarily decided to enter a state tax paid amount of $7,000,000! This gave us an $89,000 refund!! Totally off the wall.
It would NOT let me change the amount and I got no response from "help" that applied in any way.
I have used and been satisfied with TurboTax for several years, but this year to start over and do a complete new return which was annoying to say the least. I will have to think about using TurboTax in the future.
What's great about it: When it works right it is a great system!!
What's not so great: Getting realistic help for unusual problem is impossible!!
