I had errors at the end that I wanted to correct. When I tried to find where I needed to return to to fix them I could not. I ended up deleting my completed return and start over. It would've been nice if there was a search function to help find specific words that you entered in the questionnaire.

I was not allowed to take the entire CA tax paid for 2016 as a deduction. A portion of the estimated tax I paid in 2016 and which was applied in the 2016 tax return, was not applied in the "other taxes" under deductions. Otherwise, love it and would be lost without it.

"Net Proceeds" from the sale of a second home as reported on Form 1099-S cannot be entered as indicated if the cap gains (loss) is to be calculated correctly, because the cost basis (even excluding improvements) may be (and most likely will be) more than the net proceeds, resulting in a net loss being calculated instead of a gain. For example, my net proceeds on the 1099-S were $59,000 on a gross sale price of $118,000 but my cost 4 years earlier was $64,500. When this data was entered the result was a loss. So I was prompted by your program to upgrade to the Premier edition instead of using just Deluxe, since Premier would supposedly handle investments better. Unfortunately this was not the case -- there was no difference at all between Deluxe and Premier regarding this problem. So to correct the problem I had to enter my actual net proceeds of $118,000 less closing costs of about $7,000 & then enter the improvements I had made, which correctly resulted in a net long term gain.

Beware if you used TurboTax online previously and want to save money by buying the CD version this year. It does not import information and answers that you've given in previous years. The questions that you answer do not satisfy the forms when "smart checked", making the user update forms on their own -- very frustrating.

Although taxes are intimidating, turbotax takes you by the hand and leads you step-by-step as you climb the steep hills and unseen drops in tax world. Clear instructions and probing questions build your confidence as you venture further. Centuries beyond sharpened pencils, erasers, clips, staples and adding machines!

Turbo Tax covers every angle and is up to date on any changes. The step by step instructions are easy to follow; it is easy to make a correction if needed. It rolls forward info from the previous year if Turbo Tax was used. I have used it for several years and plan to continue.

I have been using Turbotax for many years and have never had a problem to date. Just started using their electronic filing and it works like a breeze. You will definitely get your refund much faster than using mail. Price is right and anybody that can use a computer can file taxes with confidence you will be doing it right and getting the biggest refund when you qualify.

My Mac is incapable of running OS High Sierra. I will be compelled to spend thousand$ for new hardware to run it. Why can't the 2018 tax year TT software be backwards compatible with OS X El Capitan? Inquiring minds want to know. I have been using TT since the DOS days. Please review your decision to force users to OS High Sierra.

I need to assign income to another state. The question asked refers to income taxed by both states. This is difficult to understand since this income has not been taxed by both until it is entered into Turbo. Would like the question to refer to designated state income instead of taxed income.

Pro: This year you've made great strides to improve your handling of MLPs. Last year was fair....worked if nothing unusual happened. This year was quite good....could handle most anything the K-1 delivered. A few things (Don't enter LTC amounts if you're retired) didn't work but no show stoppers. Unfortunately, TDAmeritrade didn't transfer my wife's RMD for 2017. Turbotax missed it completely. Luckily, I remembered and brought up a 5329 which Turbotax WAS able to incorporate. Turbotax is better for me than anything Block brings out.
