Confusing - Sneaky
on April 14, 2016
Posted by: Taken2long
I was not able to import the previous years information onto this return, thus it took longer. The instructions to do this were not clear, and in fact it hadn't been problem for me in the previous 15 - 20 years. Turbo Tax said that the forms that were taken out of because of product changes last year were brought back (for the Deluxe Version) They were the forms that neccessitated buying the Premier version last year which was $30 more. However the easy step interview was not clear, and I had to go back to the previous year to see what I had to do. Even if I had to pay more to upgrade It was still cheaper than going to a professional tax service.
What's great about it: Step by Step process was helpful much of the time
What's not so great: The easy step interview was hard to follow

TurboTax Deluxe
on April 14, 2016
Posted by: hubba39
I like that I can work on my taxes as information comes in and then easily complete for filing.
I've used TurboTax for over 10 years and find it a little easier to use each year. This is possibly because I'm more familiar with your product and because you've made your product a little easier to navigate.
Usually there is a submit button to push after review
What's great about it: Easier to navigate than in previous years. Intuit didn't make the surprise changes to TurboTax Deluxe which caused majo
What's not so great: Figuring estimated taxes & applying some or all of my refund to estimated taxes was not very intuitive.
Pros: I bought or sold investments

Superior Telephone Help Line!
on April 14, 2016
Posted by: Bobbyart
An understandable looong wait on 'hold', but well worth it! Rep was patient, well informed, altogether professional and, most of all, solved my problem. Far better than most telephone help lines!
Pros: I bought or sold investments

What's not so great: ask for 1099hc when only given 1095b.
Pros: I bought or sold investments

adequate
on April 14, 2016
Posted by: joconnor
Guides the amateur through the process with little acid reflux. However, it occasionally leaves the client without a clear idea if they are in the right place for certain deductions or additions. And I, as an artist, was never sure what was meant by fairly common business terms (what does inventory mean wrt paintings, sketches, frames and framing materials, manuscripts, proofs,)
What's great about it: seems to be complete and inclusive
What's not so great: not always clear or decisive

Generally OK, but a Few Problems
on April 14, 2016
Posted by: DBFSailor
This is never a fun experience, and I'm used to the long lists of questions, understanding that these are in there to insure compliance and make sure my taxes are calculated correctly.
For some reason, TurboTax got hung up on the cell on Form 8829 that shows percent of business use of equipment purchased for business purposes. It wouldn't allow me to change the entry or put in new figures. No relevant online help was available.
What's not so great: Form 8829 didn't allow corrective input
