Having trouble transitioning from interim 1041 to final 1041.Also, the decedent resided in a different state than the representative filling out the form which had to be managed throughout the process. Still. All documents were generated and were abled to b mailed.

The Fed TurboTax Business works well, but the state versions are not worth the money. They do little more than transcribe federal data to the state forms. I used both Virginia and California forms this year for trusts I manage. The California version had fatal errors in two areas that prevented e-file: 1) required a W-2 for CA Withholding even though the withholding was all per Real Estate Sale (CA Form593), and 2) insisted on generating Form 5805 assessing a Late Penalty even though I clearly met the exemption from penalty criteria and CA says NOT to file the form in that case. Because I had to override the penalty values, TTB wouldn't let me e-file. Another annoying issue, typical on the state forms, is inadequate explanation of what to do with some data. I had some federal data (allocable depletion?) that it just told me to "enter on the appropriate state form". No Help info provided. How useless.

I had a lot of frustration transferring my QuickBooks income statement and balance sheet into TurboTax Business Desktop because of the weird definition of retained earnings and an inconsistency in how retained earnings is calculated in California. You can make this much simpler by providing a worksheet that generates the TurboTax value based on QB balance sheet and income statement values.

Each year, I'm waiting for them to rewrite it and give it some new features and improve the interface. I is almost unusable but really the only option

very easy for my simple C Corp taxes! Love the desktop version, but would really prefer to have it all in the cloud in the same account as my personal cloud taxes are!

Turbo Tax asks about destructibility of Officer Life Insurance. I think it should ask about Non-Deductible Penalty expenses and handle correctly rather we are forced to figure it out on h M-1

It works great for federal filing; would not allow for a State of Nebraska filing - Nebraska Department of Revenue strongly encourages e-file. Why doesn't Turbo Tax Business- Desktop support??? I have the same issue every year and then have to make numerous calls to the state to get them to work the paper filings and send my refund.

I was happy with the Business software until I had to amend a Form 1065. Amending it was easy enough, but it left me with no direction as to where to mail Form 1065X when the previous 1065 was e-filed. It should have allowed me to e-file, and if that was not an option, it should have listed addresses.

I've been doing my taxes for over 20 years including personal, business, and trust. This year was my worst experience ever. I kept getting stuck with unclear directions, boxes that wouldn't let me type in them, etc. I finally had to delete my schedule E and start it over. This felt as if I was working on forms on my own if not worse. I worked on this all night long. It's after 12 NOON now and I just got done. Worst EVER. And the most expensive program I've used up to now.

I grew too reliant on my PC to host Turbo Tax. When it fried and I had to do a data migration, to my shock I discovered that I hadn't saved a .pdf of my 2024 tax return for my ranch partnership. That meant that I couldn't find the right line on the previous year's form to file electronically. This became the first year that I couldn't file this return electronically because it was simply too much trouble to locate the license for the 2024 program, reinstall it, etc. just to find the one line income summary needed to file electronically. Bummer!
