Made Our Small Business Tax Filing Easier!
on March 14, 2017
Posted by: snowhappyP
Our company is incorporated and located in the same state. We don't have any complex organizational or tax structures so we are hesitant to pay accountants to file our taxes for us. That said, the forms are still overwhelming on their own and TurboTax for Business helps us navigate the whole process. Thanks!
What's great about it: Nice guide through tax questions
What's not so great: No report of final calculated numbers after Federal, before State

Taxes made managable
on March 14, 2017
Posted by: Bman7711
Once you decide to tackle preparing your business tax returns the process with TurboTax allows you to work at your own pace to get the job completed. I spent hundreds and hundreds of dollars having my taxes prepared by someone else and really did not understand them. Now I do and I am much more comfortable with the tax return I submit.
What's great about it: TurboTax for business does an excellent job in tackling the cumbersome work of preparing corporate tax returns.
What's not so great: Really! No complaints!

Manual Fixing Required To Submit
on March 14, 2017
Posted by: BillZH
TurboTax Business often does not fill in all of the necessary fields, even when the information is or should be available. I have never successfully filed state income tax for either CA or FL without having it catch multiple fields not filled in which have to be entered manually when you should be done. For example, I had a carry forward credit which I could not identify so I finally removed it (losing $600) just so I could complete my taxes. I have been using TurboTax for over a decade, so the information should have been carried forward without action on my part.
State and federal submission is very confusing if your state does not support electronic submission. You basically have to go all the way to the end on the federal, at which point it thinks you are done. Then you have to find some way to get back to submit your state return.
Lots of boxes for which the values were never asked so I had to do it doing the review, often with little or no understanding of what they meant and no available help text.
For the Florida Tangible Personal Property Tax Return, it gives you two opportunities to fill it out, one early in the process and a second near the end. If you already filled it out at the first opportunity, it doesn't "know" that you did so and tries to make you do it again. Also, it never asks for the majority of the information needed (for example, condition of each item) and makes you use a absurd interface were it asks you for one item at a time and does not tell you which piece of property you are answering question for.
I am beginning to wonder of the competition is as poor at doing state taxes.
What's great about it: Kinda works.
What's not so great: Does not fill in all required fields.

Easy to use. Sometimes hard to go back to a page to change something that was previously filled in, but basically easy.
