Every year it seems the software gets worse and there's less functionality too help oneself problem solve, understand one's entries and how they tie to forms/worksheets. I guess that's because Intuit/TT wants to upsell their services. The foreign tax credit piece is fraught with errors.

first, I buy the software every year - I files taxes for my siblings, seconds I was having many issues with an error, and it was not fixing it after I inputted the correct information. third I was not able to e-file because I file more than 5 people's taxes even using the online software because their taxes did not need to use the deluxe model! so this year I have to file my taxes my mail...not very happy about it.

You might want to user a precise word when instructing a action. For example: "Enter you last year AGI". If the current time is March 2026 and the user was filing his return. The words "last year" could be understood as 2025 and/or 2024 AGI figure. Thank you for asking for a review.

Program is cumbersome, has lots of bugs, has constant huge sized updates taking up way too much space. If I could complete and submit my tax return two weeks ago, why can't I file today without installing a 350MB update? There are also several things TT doesn't ask me about that I have to initiate on my on. My return was rejected because I wasn't prompted to input my 1095-A information. This should be a standard question. I use QuickBooks Online and the process for importing my QB data into TT is laughable. Especially considering Intuit owns everything and could prioritize a seamless integration if they actually cared about or listened to the needs of the consumer. After all the effort required to import data from QBO, every year there is missing data in the QBO data file. I don't even waste my time doing this anymore. There should be a one-click dialog box to directly export to TT from QBO. There's no excuse for this process being so onerous.

Does not really answer questions. You end up having to go to the internet or the IRS to get more detailed information. It's not worth buying the program for simple taxes with the standard deduction being so large. Money for the program, money to file, advertisements the whole way...spend money to pay money. Thanks.

Overall pretty good but unfortunately Turbo Tax failed to submit my returns because it needed an update.. It should have checked this before it to me to the final steps of entering ID and account info..I had to exit, download the updates, and start the final steps again. Also it des not always remember previous selections that you make. For instance when calculating mortgage interest it kept defaulting my HELOC to a refi when I was double checking my numbers for accuracy. i

Every year Turbo Tax changes the way they ask questions re K-1. I make a note from the previous year on how to enter and the next year the question is differently worded so it's hard to figure out what is being asked. On State Tax return it kept locking up when I was trying to enter the different states. Not happy. May switch next year what tax app I use.

I don't like being offered upgrades during the return process - just let me get my tax returns done. When paying taxes due, I was sent to the Maryland state payment site but it did not take me back to TurboTax. After about 5 minutes, I used the back button (yeah, I know), I got a "payment didn't go through" error message, so I put in the same information a second time and it processed successfully. It still didn't take me back to TT so I used my tabs to return to the program to file the returns electronically. I found this unnecessarily confusing. I do like the feature that imports last year's data and having the option to import financial data from outside sources.

I have been using Turbo Tax for several years, but this year it has been more difficult. The format has changed a bit, making it more difficult. Also, after installing it, at first my return showed up from last year, as did my son's. I did mine. When I closed mine after completing it, and went back to do my son's taxes, using last year's as a guide, it disappeared. I tried uploading the past year's from 2 different type of files listed In Turbo Tax. Neither worked. Not sure if I will use Turbo Tax next year as I didn't find this year's compatibility to be what I wanted and expected.

I have to trust your calculations are correct. I CANNOT STAND THE CONSTANT UPSELL. PS if you want me to respond beyond this, I will require payment, in advance. Unless I choose, I do not give out advice, recommendations for other information for free.
