Satisfied Multi-year User
on April 5, 2018
Posted by: 1oldchap
I have used several tax preparation programs over the years. Each is slightly different and requires getting accustomed to, I think, but this one has done all I need for the past few years, is pretty straight forward, less expensive, simple and free to efile, and fully satisfactory for my needs.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to prepare, Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!

Each year this download becomes later. I have had to resort to another program to print my 1040ES forms. Bah Humbug!
Pros: Easy to install
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I did encounter problems with K-1 and Schedule E
on March 31, 2018
Posted by: Lawrence41
Although it doesn't make any difference in my case, the interview for K-1 does not ask about the "Final K-1" or Amended 'K-1" boxes. The generated K-1 work sheet has entries for these and I manually marked the correct box in Form View.
I was told by a professional who did trust 1041 taxes that I should file a Schedule E with part III filled out to show the trust name and EIN. I only had long term Cap gains (box 4a) data on my K-1 from the trust. This did not cause a Schedule E to be generated. I forced a Schedule E out by, during the interview for K-1, entering $1 for K-1 box 6 and $-1 for box 7. That generated a Schedule E and I overrode the + and - 1's to zeros on Schedule E before printing.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to prepare, Easy to import, Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fair

I bought this today because TurboTax is no longer sold in stores.I prefer not to download tax software. I think if you should put a link to start a new form at the end of each 1099 it would be easier I had several 1099R's and it was hard to find where the "Enter Manually" link was each time I wanted to start another 1099R.
I would recommend this to a friend!
