A very good app.

It was extremely easy to use. The only difficulty I had was printing the form to sign and scan. The app would not let me save the form to print unless I added my name to the signature field using one of the sidebar controls. It was a bit frustrating, but I got through it. Otherwise, it was a breeze.
I spoke with tax expert Marissa from Pennsylvania. Her assistance was awesome. She was patient while I downloaded Chrome and she got my TT for a C Corporation downloaded and running. The one issue I have with TT for business is the lack of an online solution for C corporations and requiring you to download a version to your PC.
It works similar to the consumer product, which is good. However, for someone who is using the product to file taxes for an estate, it is jargon heavy. I recommend having an AI assistant you can ask questions of. There was one glitch in the process that I noticed. After checking for errors (none!), it gave me a tip to fill out "IRC 172(b)(3), Election to Forego the Carryback Period for Net Operating Loss" so I could carryforward the loss. It says the form is "available in Other Forms You May Need"; however, I could find nothing like that in the software.
I had great luck with the Federal Tax for my company. I bought the TX state Franchise module. This is a very simple form. I entered the data correctly and it kept telling me there was incomplete information but never showed where the incomplete information was. I filled everything out completely and kept getting the same incomplete information. I ended up wasting $59 and still had to do the form manually anyway
Ran into an issue with Check estate return... Error popped up that the Check Name didnt match - TurboTax had taken the first 4 characters of the Name on the return which was TRUST OF xxxx FBO yyyy and filled in TRUS .... which the program realized was wrong but when searching on help for the field - it returned information on filing which had nothing to do with the check error ... I ended up placing a call and after the first attempt to connect to the help line (I was disconnected), the 2nd call also went through extremely quickly - less than 2 minutes - which I still can't believe on April 15th... It was impressive. The agent who assisted me was able to find what the actual reference was to the field that I needed and said it was the first four digits of the last name on the Estate ... In my case there were two to choose from but at least I knew what I was trying to match
