Desktop version doesn't have a good flow. It would be OK if it marked everything that you reviewed as reviewed like the web version, but if you don't actually enter data for a topic, it looks as though you didn't look at it, so it just makes it very difficult to see what sections you've finished reviewing. makes it very hard to double-check what you still need to look at.

Have always been a fan of the product, but it insists I use e-file for my state return. When I print the state tax documents it even tells me not to mail the forms because I have sent the state return via e-file. Very strange and I cannot work around it.

Copying & pasting bank information saves mistakes, and saves time. Sending one state return included is the decent thing to do, not nickel & dime us and make us use a reddit card if we do not get a refund from rhe Feds. You should make us want to use you and recommend you, not make things worse, these taxes are enough agrivation We cannot recommend you any longer.

This year was very challenging and confusing compared to the 20 or so prior years. Could be due to tax law changes. I have difficulty reading the small print in the Pop-up help boxes. I'd like the pop-up help boxes to be larger or that I was able to enlarge.

I opted to use the Premier version of TurboTax this year because I knew I had AMT issues to be addressed. In previous years I used the Deluxe version and liked that tool. What seemed to be missing in the Premier version was a means to readily right-click on entry blocks looking for a value and being able to quickly create a worksheet. These worksheets are valuable to me because they capture details of the values I am applying to my filing records. Moving to the Forms entry to provide details is not convenient.

It was a bit confusing when efilie both h the Fed 1040 and CA 540 income tax returns. I saved the forms in one file. Does Turbo Tax only send the IRS the IRS forms, or did they transmit my Federal and Cal forms to the the IRS? Also do I receive a second confirmation showing when the Fed and Cal Tax returns were sent to both taxing agencies?

I had a fantastic support rep to help me get past an error trying to pay the California $25 fee. Turns out the 3rd party cancelled my product key even though they charged my card. Once the rep generated a new product key, I was able to complete my return. Excellent user support rep.

I was initially unable to pay the TurboTax bill for my state filing using my preferred credit card because the drop-down menu for the month of my credit card would not go beyond "08." Eventually, I had to select another credit card where the month of the credit card fell within the range "01-08."

I had a couple of issues that made doing the taxes more dificult than it should have been. 1) when putting information for 1099-dev, 1099-int and another 1099 topic I downloaded the information from my broker. When it asked me to review the information for each, it only showed the broker name. I have 7 accounts with that broker. It should show at least PART of the account number when I get to that stage. 2) on my 1095-a , my column B was zero for all months. Although it did not affect me as i do not itemize, it would not let me enter the form as it was sent to me. (You don't believe me? I will show you) I made up a reasonable number and submitted that instead as it didn't matter. 3) If I leave the "interview method" of entering information for whatever reason, I would like a button to return me to the interview where I left off. Could not find a good way to do that other than getting out of TurboTax and returning. Other than those things, I love the product. Have been using it since I did it character based on my 286 computer under DOS. Thanks

some of the interface was "clunky" area of 1099's required multiple steps to get to the entries. The interface for 1099 b's was different. This made it confusing. Not sure why 1099bs had to be mailed. never did that before. (Nor are we doing this for taxes prepared on tax Slayer.) Arizona return did not ask about treasury interest which is not taxable in AZ. had to find line on the form and enter manually.
