poor donation form filling
on April 5, 2014
Posted by: nsoi
we donated most of our children's old clothes, I keep very detailed records of what was donated, I used your forms to identify the items. But when I did the reviews I had 347 errors because the software did not fill in the items as I listed them.
1.) I listed things as clotheing or house hold items or clothing then I had to fill in EVERY line for each separate item shorts, shorts, shoes, pants, boots, ect....
2.) Then I had to go through every item listed shoes, shorts, pants, boots, ect.... and list how I got these prices when I used your work sheet, which I assumed it used resale shop pricing for.
Turbo Tax should have filled these lines 347 of them for me with the questions I answered.
We will try it one more year, if it is not fixed I will be shopping for a new tax software company this added HOURS to my taxes.
What's great about it: transfering last year
What's not so great: donations

Frustrating Experience in Investment Income Sectio
on April 5, 2014
Posted by: jalarti
I was doing just fine until I got into the Investments section. When I had finished reporting my transactions in Box A, I found to my surprise that there was no place that I could find where I could report the Box D (long-term) transactions. I tried for an hour to figure out where to find information about it, and finally ended up calling them. After waiting for a while, I got a lady on the phone who tried to help me, but it wasn't until I Googled the problem that I found out I was supposed to update the Turbo Tax software that I had just purchased. She stayed on the line with me until that was completed and I finally got the screen that gave me the Box D option. I don't understand why this was not included in the first place - it's not like it's a new tax law - and it's frustrating when I can't figure out what to do about it and there's no answer in the HELP section.
What's great about it: Ease of MOST of Turbo Tax
What's not so great: Lack of explanation as to why Box D Investments reporting wasn't there.

Won't ever use anything else
on April 5, 2014
Posted by: rainbowsbunnies
I've only not used TurboTax once, and I will NEVER make that mistake again. Turbotax is easy to use, incredibly helpful and explanatory. This year I had a few confusing points with doing multiple state returns but since I'm able to stop and look things up, and go back- and refill out the forms as many times as I need to- there's nothing to worry about. Still got them done in a jiff.
What's great about it: so much easier than any other way to do taxes
What's not so great: rarely if anything comes up that requires any extra work
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion), I moved

2013 tax review
on April 5, 2014
Posted by: rlanquist
The Turbo Tax application was quick and easy to use. I used it for the first time, and was impressed with the ease of use. It saved me hours of reading the tax code, and saved me the risk of mis-interpreting the code. I did it both ways, first manually, then with Turbo Tax, and gained 25% more refund by using the application.
What's great about it: quick, logical, intuitive, comprehensive
What's not so great: none
