I am a cpa and know that there are fields that do not allow amounts to be entered correctly. There are fields that if you do enter info, they will not be rejected during efile but your software says it will. Software does not have good AMT schedules. W-2 entry is archaic.
I HAVE USED YOUR SOFTWARE FOR YEARS. THIS TIME IT SEEMS TO HAVE A BUG. I CANNOT PRINT FED AND STATE RETURNS. IT GOES TO PRINT PAGE. THE BOTTOM IS HIDDEN BELOW AND CANNOT MOVE THE SCREEN UP TO CLICK PRINT COMMAND.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to prepare, Easy to import
The software was easy to install, no glitches. The software updated my 2017 return from last years information. The directions were clear and straight forward.
Cannot enter Spouse's SSN # as NRA, and therefore cannot submit electronically. Also, need to review tax form instructions to see if items apply to me, where other softwares are much more intuitive and have clearer explanations.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to import
Cons: Time consuming, Doesn't maximize refund, Hard to prepare
Got this one because Intuit (which I've used the last three years) is way overpriced. Only thing wrong is that it wouldn't import the file from Quicken. Not a big problem, I just transferred over the numbers I needed to the appropriate sections. Still that's why It got four stars instead of five. For the price difference
After doing the "Interview" and checking my return, it said there were things that had to be fixed. It would have been nice if it took me to the right page, showed me the mistakes, and told me how to fix them. There was no explanation other than, basically, "Fix your mistakes."
