Had a great experience with a tax advisor. There needs to be better instructions for solving the 199a needs a value problem when the k-i has a z STMT in box 20 with no value and then the personal return, when a Z is entered asks for a value. The solution is to enter ZZ in box 20 to clear the error but I have called 2 years in a row to fix the glitch.

I worked for Intuit supporting the original version of QB DOS 1 and DOS 2, then Windows versions. I was there when TurboTax was acquired and have been an avid fan and user every year since. Unfortunately, this year the Business Version has not hit the mark and not even come close. 1: As a QB online user I am unable to import my data into Turbotax. (Okay, there is a work around but it took nearly two days, one full day was with Support Helping. 2: The rounding errors from Income & Expense amounted to about $5. This should be an automated fix with a couple of choices based on sound advice. 3: I paid my California $800 LLC tax online. It took hours to get past the downstream of this issue, 4: My partner and I work for the business along with 1 employee. When asked how many W2s we produced, I said 3, apparently the correct answer is 1. Add some explanation in the step-by-step. 5: When asked to insert income for Officers and income for Employees, the Previous years blank now showed the current Officers income while current year showed Total (Bug), 6: Final thoughts. This product needs major improvement or Customers will walk away.

Was difficult using the download to desktop. Would prefer to have a disk to install for 2025. Tax expert Jessica was very helpful and with her assistance was finally able to install. Have used Turbotax for the past 7 years with no problems from a disk, but this year was a challenge.

Intuit pressured me into upgrading from QuickBooks Desktop to QuickBooks Online, by increasing the price until it didn't make sense to hang on to the Desktop version. Now, I discover that I can no longer import my company information from QuickBooks Online into TurboTax Business. I have discovered that you have known of this major shortcoming for many years, haven't bothered to resolve it, and don't bother to inform your customers of this. What a disappointment.

When I look on the Web for Turbotax package features, it does not ever include TurboTax Business. Since we have a rental property and need to create K1's, we can not do this with Home and Business (which we had already purchased!!!). This was extremely frustrating. We have done our 1065's and K1's manually in the past, since we thought this was the only way to do them with TT.

Make it for Mac so I don't have to suffer the disaster of Windows UX. Also, when launching forms, you make the size of a postage stamp. It seems basic that you should give users the ability to zoom. Finally, the constant upselling throughout the filing process is incredibly annoying. It would be best to give the user the ability to select all relevant products at the start so it feels a little less like financing a used car.

Unable to get the program to put gains and losses in the proper box on 8949. I input that basis was reported but 8949 shows basis not reported, and no way to override. Very frustrating. I hope Intuit reads this and fixes the problem for others. Otherwise, the program worked well and the e-filing was easy.

Very little useful information in the help files to explain terms, or explain the differences between various classes of trusts, etc. Turbotax Business was used to file for a Trust, without distributions this year, yet the program insisted I make a distribution and prepare distribution forms.

When entering a partner that was not an individual the program did not automatically convert the tax ID from a social security number to an FEIN. As a result, there were numerous error messages that took a long time to identify the error. Fixing the errors were not straight forward and had me looking at different forms to find the correct place to fix the tax ID.

I think that TurboTax is great, in general. However, you are just double dipping by making us buy both the Home & Business and the Business editions of TT. Why not combine the S-Corp/Business with the personal Home & Business? We need to do both anyways, and the S-Corp/Business edition ends up being a catalyst for a lot of the personal... especially if you are in a smaller Sole-Proprietorship one person S-Corp/LLC business. If you would just do this, then you'd easily get a 5* rating from me!!
