Still looking for IRS Form 5227 (Split Interest Trust) to be included in the TurboTax Business software that claims to cover "Trusts". I mention this every year and never have received any responses.
Fabulous federal but lousy state tax return softwa

Intuit/Turbotax, as in the last 20 years, does a fabulous job for federal tax return and such a lousy job for state tax return that they should be paying the users, not the other way. Shameful So many lapses that I got the sense that they were too lazy or insensitive to read the tax regulations and rules to incorporate them into the software
TT was OK on the Federal 1120S. I'm furious however that they do not provide electronically filing of my Iowa return when the state of IA requires an electronic filing or the return will be disregarded. Because I had this problem last year, I called before starting my TT Business returns AND WAS ASSURED BY TT THAT I COULD FILE ELECTRONICALLY. FRAUD!!! I have wasted many hours on this for nothing and I'm sure all I will get from TT is a shrug and refund of my state fee.
Disappointing The software would not import from my version of Quickbooks - Quickbooks Pro 2022 The software would not allow an efile due to some undiscoverable or uncorrectable (1) error (possibly an amount which the software at some point inserted into the return and would be overidden) An override of this same error worked in past versions
Pages for corrections are confusing and hard to navigate. All other pieces are self-explanatory and well-organized. I like that I can go back at any point. Disappointed that it wasn't easier to transfer previous year's return or information from Quickbooks online
