Updates are clunky

Found some of my investment items were not in my Turbo-Tax when I started up. Only by looking on-line was I able to determine the items were in a non-automatic update I was never told about. Bad call Turbo-Tax. Otherwise I love the program.
What's great about it: Love the program
What's not so great: Does not do automatic updates upon start-up as you might be led to believe. You MUST do a manual update.

2013 Tax Processing

Overall, many enhancements have been made to make the program more user friendly. I know that this is a stretch, but it would be nice if the user had a choice of screen colors. I am color blind and have a difficult time seeing light screen colors. With that being said I still think this is one of the best tax programs on the market.
What's great about it: Ease of use, and transferring of previous year informaton to the following year
What's not so great: The option for e-filing vs. mail filing is not clear. It appears that this process was modified to force the user to sel

For the second time in three years the IRS has adjusted my return because the self-employment tax was calculated incorrectly by TurboTax. I sure hope they get this fixed for next year.
What's great about it: easy, quick
What's not so great: Errors

Two persistent problems
on March 17, 2014
Posted by: TexasTea17
1) I've used TurboTax for more than 10 years, and I've never understood why the IRA contribution question is asked at the beginning of the interview. The1# IRA contribution question should be near the end, after you know how much you owe in taxes. TurboTax should also tell you how much of an IRA contribution you should make in order to offset the taxes owed.
2) An estimation of itemized deductions is needed, prior to taking the time to go through them all in detail. For example, TurboTax could ask you to input your #typically) largest deductions first, such as mortgage interest, etc. A running total could be provided to compare against the standard deduction, so you could more quickly determine whether or not it's worth the effort to go through every little deduction.
