When I came time to pay for services, it accepted my MasterCard for one thing but not the other, and it too 32 minutes on the phone to get my returns filed!!

Turbo Tax Review
on March 17, 2015
Posted by: unknown1
Does not handle AZ Tax Credit carryover very well--confusing--all else was very easy to follow. I would like to see TurboTax allow a direct print of what is on the screen--particularly the summary and worksheets. I also would a worksheet where medical deductable are shown separately rather than lumped. I hope TurboTax will include Schedule D in the Turbo Tax Windows version rather than having to piecemeal upgrade--TurboTax was gracious as they did a fix and allowed those who needed Schedule D (capital gains) to get it no extra cost and offered a reduction in TurboTax price if email instructions were followed.
Pros: I bought or sold investments

Hard to navigate
on March 17, 2015
Posted by: NewMALandlord
I am a tax accountant with Ernst and Young, so I am familiar with many kinds of tax software. The most frustrating thing about Turbo Tax for me is that I have to click through multiple screens even when I know the specific amount I want to correct. Additionally, this was the first year I had rental property placed in service. For some reason, Turbo Tax was trying to calculate an extra $67K of cost basis on my rental property (no idea how it got that amount). At least it was ultimately fairly simple to delete the extra asset. Also, I don't like that it prompted me to enter the value from my property tax bill in the property section. My town's records do a horrible job of tracking property values and are not an accurate representation of fair market value (e.g., it lists the basis of land on my property as zero). I'm not sure why this is a required section. If the rental property section was difficult and produced errors for someone like me, I can only imagine the difficulty the average person must have here.
What's great about it: Good for basic info
What's not so great: Not good for depreciation of rental property

I don't understand why you are requiring K-1 form users to upgrade to Premier when for many years Deluxe met my tax needs. The only thing that comes to mind is your bottom line. You should reconsider this because I know there are many like me out there who are very upset with this action!
What's not so great: unexpected change

Third party designee did not print out nor did the program allow me to override and include it. Not sure whether it was sent to the IRS or not.
What's great about it: Easy to Follow
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)

Enjoy Getting Refund
on March 17, 2015

Have question page w/ buttons...
Which direction do you want to take? -BUTTON- -BUTTON- Go To Standard Deduction Go To Itemizing Deductions
If Standard Deduction is chosen, go directly there then work with the credit section. I haven't been able to itemize for years and I'd rather not have to go searching for all that information only to be told the Standard Deduction is better for me.
What's great about it: Average guy being able to do his own taxes.
What's not so great: Shouldn't have to be forced to go through the Itemizing when you know you can't beat Standard Deduction amount.
