TurboTax made filing a breeze for our no-frills return. We didn’t need any fancy tax advice because, well, we’re at that stage in life where the most exciting deduction we take is the standard one. No kids, no credits—just clean, efficient filing that didn’t make me cry into my oatmeal. Thanks for keeping it simple and saving us the drama!

I am really disappointed with the program this year and have lost a lot of confidence in TurboTax because it does not properly migrate the Federal tax loss carryover numbers from 2023 to the 2024 MA State return, and, it does not compare the 2024 estimated MA taxes paid with the actual MA taxes paid in 2023 to evaluate whether an exemption can be claimed for an underpayment penalty.

Issues with the Colorado tax return. Not all info boxes got filled requiring manual correction on individual forms. A form had entries in the wrong place when printed out (0102). It's also very unclear when filling out for a deceased person that had zero income and no refunds, if it's necessary to file or not - both federal and state. It definitely won't allow you to submit electronically, but still gives you the option of submitting by mail. Do we have to submit by mail or not????

I had a little trouble with TurboTax this year. I had already imported my account info from Schwab but for some reason it did not seem to process that data all the way through to the worksheets. TT asked me to input that 1099-Div and 1099-int into the worksheet when it ran to check for errors. I input what it requested, and I knew right away that something was wrong. So, I had to go back and re-import my data from Schwab again. I started to really question if TT was putting the data into the correct parts of my return. I think it did, so I went through the process of E-Filing, but it did cause some anxiety.

In general, I think TurboTax is a great product. It gets better, covering more things every year. I like that you handle electronic payments now. A couple of ideas for improvement: 1) This year it was a bit confusing to get to the page for typing in the data instead of downloading. 2) Fed tax free interest that is state taxable is a bit confusing. I ended up reporting state taxable interest as from Alabama. What I really know is how much is taxable by California. 3) Review underpayment penalty calculations. Last year it said I owed penalties so I paid them, and both CA and IRS refunded them. This year it said I owed CA penalty at first, then later no (maybe fixed in an update?).

As usual the experience was mostly excellent. Only Good this year, because TT changed how various 1099 forms are entered - 1099-DIV, 1099-MISC, 1099-INT, 1099-B, etc. At one point I was stuck in a "loop" - trying to enter a particular 1099 but I could never get to the form I wanted and the program kept looping back to previous 1099 forms. I finally called the TT help desk. After a few tries we figured it out but I've never had any issues like this in previous years. Sorry, I don't remember which 1099 nor the exact buttons that I pushed because this occurred about a week ago and I did not want to give a bad review to the online person who helped me. Next time I'll record the issue and the exact buttons that I push.

I have been using Turbo Tax for almost 30 years and have been very satisfied with the product. I have used the deluxe version and the premier version over the years. I find the software reliable and relatively easy to use. I have never had to file an amended return or have had an audit. Using the e-file has gotten my tax filing done quickly and any refunds returned in a few days to a couple of weeks.

I’ve used several tax software programs over the years, but TurboTax Premier stands out as the best by far. The ease of use, thoroughness of the questions, and step-by-step guidance make it vastly superior to its competitors. TurboTax Premier excels at handling investment income and rental property taxes, making complex financial situations feel simple. The interface is intuitive, and the explanations at each step help ensure accuracy and maximize deductions. Unlike other programs that feel clunky or vague, TurboTax makes everything crystal clear. If you have investments, stock trades, or rental properties, this edition is well worth it. It’s fast, efficient, and makes filing your taxes as stress-free as possible. Highly recommend!

i have been using TurboTax since 2006 and was disappointed that it was not available on DVD for 2024 in the event that my hard drive fails or something else catastrophic happens to the original copy. I like the option of being able to file electronically for both Federal and State returns.

The software is fine and mostly easy to use. This year TT Premier added a series of unnecessary boxes for individual 1099s etc that add no value and just add additional steps. Beyond that the constant upselling for additional paid services like advice and full tax prep is beyond annoying.
