It was easy to use, straight-forward, however I was not able to file on time because it was rejected saying my 3030 AGI was in error. It was NOT. AND I VERIFIED by my IRS Transcript. Thus had to file on paper which made my return late!!!
A VERY SMOOTH transition from the 1041 to 1040 Returns that I must routinely prepare!! I WAS able to figure out HOW to easily file Electronically - after I put in last years AGI (Adjusted Gross Income) correctly.
I use it to take care of some family affairs including a trust but the business version is way complicated without the hand holding that the personal version gives.
The more complicated your taxes become, the more useless the software becomes. I am almost never able to find an answer in the help section. I find more useful information on the competition's website. While this eventually compiles my complicated federal return and e-files it, for a second year in a row, I was unable to download or use the state program. I have to do my state taxes directly through my state. With all of these flaws, it makes me nervous that there could be errors in my federal return, but to date, I have not had any problems after filing. The only reason I continue to use the software is because I have been using it for a long time and do not want to switch. At some point, I am going to hit a brickwall and give up. At that point, I will just hire a CPA.
This years business portion SUCKED !!! Totally unsuable!!! Kept defaulting to form 1041 (trusts), not 1065 (partnerships), despite answering the interview and importing the prior year information. Support wa of NO help whatsoever and i am STILL awaiting their response!!!! I was not not being able to use the business portion, such a waste of money!!!
some outdated antiquated looking software. and some things are not as obvious as they should be. desperately needs a facelift and a user interface design overhaul.
