Turbo Tax Premier, makes it easy for me. I am doing 3 returns for myself, mother & brother. I have to deal with retirement accounts, social security, Medicare, mutual funds, stocks, Bank interest, Medical expenses, multiple properties & more. It asks the right questions & provides help when I don't understand the jargon. Another year that Turbo Tax has helped me get it done.

Have used Turbo Tax for many years - perhaps from Intuit's year 1. See no reason to pay a tax preparer when we keep good records, take a conservative approach to taxes - get all we're due but not stretching the limits. Works well for us. Using TT Advantage.

TurboTax is okay, but its series of questions on health coverage (or not) are completely U.S.-based. I live in an asian country where everyone has full healthcare--better coverage than I would get in the U.S., IMNSHO. It's universal, and I willingly pay good money for it. TurboTax canNOT handle this (Premier version). To "fix" this, go to the IRS website and fill in a correct version of your 1040, so that you are not improperly assessed for healthcare by TurboTax.

Looks like they fixed one of the final steps during review that used to be difficult - updating forms and lines THEN returning to final check in the spot you left off. This software has proved useful as a military member who has moved multiple times and has (unintentionally) ended up renting a couple of homes. Very useful with tracking my IRA contributions and making expert recommendations.

This is my 5th year using Turbo Tax and ever since the first year, it has been a comfortable process. Very simply it is worry free. You enter the correct numbers and everything else is thought of for you. I always have to itemize and couldn't be more pleased at the detail TT provides to make sure I get the best refund I can possibly receive.

On the whole, Turbotax is thorough and reliable. When using the state-specific filings, it was difficult to figure out where state tax exemptions were to be found or inserted on the forms. I did find help with the questions to community help line. Still, special tax treatment that is unique to a state should be easily + prominently highlighted. Questions should reflect that.

Why the "back" button is missing is a mystery. When printing all forms for filing State only, I unchecked the Federal, bit the Federal showed up anyway in adobe. I had to select only the State papers or the whole thing would have printed. Turbo Tax has always had problems with printing! Finding a specific place to get back to a bit tricky. Their search tool helped. Overall, I am less and less impressed with Turbo Tax as the years go by, plus it's getting more expensive. Next year I will check out the competition (I cancelled my auto-enroll).

Over 10 years with Turbo Tax.., I was not happy this year. I even upgrated to Premier, which was a little more informative. I have 'oil lease' with royalties, have 'oil rental' with no royalties (yet). Turbo tax was not at all helpful in helping me to fill out the forms properly. Kept telling me I was wrong, but not at all helpful in telling me how to solve the issue in reporting a Rental vs a Royalty. Our Tax Code really, really needs to be simplified

I've been having a CPA do my taxes since 2013 due to a business I had. Decided to do my wife and her daughter's tax returns this year via T-Tax. Got the Premier version for their investments and was generally pleased on the program...except that when I was being guided through my wife's return, it never asked if she had sold her house (she had)...and that was a bit disconcerting to find that it somehow missed that...I then had to go on-line to see how to at least go through the steps of adding it. I've done my son's and my daughters Fed/State taxes but those were pretty easy. As always I'm a bit nervous using T-Tax...not because it's a bad program, just that I worry if I make a mistake...just part of the price of saving several hundred dollars from CPA fees. In general it's a pretty good program to use but you do have to be organized!

Once again, TurboTax transformed what used to be a taxing and difficult process (pun intended) into a pretty darn easy task. The importing of last year's personal data was simple, and saved a lot of keystrokes. The importing of this year's tax info from online banking and investment companies was trivially easy. The guided step-by-step march through the forms was also really easy. I heartily recommend TurboTax!
