I had conversations with two online associates as my older computer would not update. They were very patient and a huge help. As it turned out I feel pretty sure it was a filter block on my internet connection. I took the laptop to the office and used the business internet and it worked find.

This year's program did not include the screen option for in-putting Fm 1099-PATR entries. After much trouble I was able to get an answer through the "Help" field where forum posters explained the work-around method of manually entering the information via the "Do It Myself" option at the bottom of the Dividend Screen.

auto fill previous years pin so the file won't be rejected after submission I had a problem with the program shutting down after it saved the program and was unable to retrieve the file or program. Praying and unplugging the computer for a day helped.

Please consider making some changes to aid users. I have bee a Turbo Tax uses for 20+ Years, I find itemizing Contributions A VERY tedious chore. Since I often add or delete some from the previous year. -First I go thru the list to see which ones I no longer need this year, dutifully checking against my Excel lit. -The Desktop program has a trash can next to each item, but when clicked, the entire screen goes gray but the item stays. -Since I have over 600 different items, this takes time, wasted -Again, since I add new ones, it would be EXTREMELY helpful and same an enormous amount of time if they could be alphabetized, since each year more were added and are now at the bottom of the original list and at the bottom of the previous year's list - It would also save time if after each entry the screen would go back to when ir was instead of always going back to the beginning of the list. - If after entering the amount, simply hitting ENTER or RETURN the screen would return to the list instead of having to move the cursor to the Continue -In Contributions: if you hit the back button, it would be better to just go back to the last entry instead of the top of the list -Having to go all the way to the end to add a new item is also VERY time consuming -With the more data inputted, the slower the program gets, to a snail' pace Which forces me to quite the program and restart it.

Every year for the last four years i have had to buy extra support to complete the depreciation expenses on 2 rental properties because turbo tax puts all the passive losses in the line 2018. My tax helper this year finally told me the software has a glitch and I needed to enter the info manually and she showed me how to do it.

1- Modifying investment entries in the step‑by‑step workflow is difficult because updates must be made through the associated form(s), rather than directly within the entry. 2- The Interest and Dividends sections are cumbersome to navigate; viewing all entries requires constant scrolling up and down. 3- The tax software should automatically exclude penalties on tax payments whose deadlines were postponed to January 2025 due to the Los Angeles wildfires. A similar extension was also announced at the federal level.

I have used TurboTax for 20 years. I have found that the search function within the desktop interface has become worthless over the last couple of years. I can no longer use it to navigate between forms or sections of the interview process. The answers to questions seem unrelated to my queries. Also, I ran into the limit for federal filings. I have prepared taxes for myself and four children, a total of 5 filings. I have duplicated some of the files as I worked out some complicated tax issues (i.e., using a dummy federal K1 to be able to input a state-level K1). As I attempted to file electronically only the third federal return, I reached the limit. I now have to file three returns via the mail. Very disappointed. I have filed the same five returns electronically every year until this year.

I have used Turbo Tax for years. In 24 I went to another company because I wasn't happy with Turbo Tax, but this year nI decided to come back. After the taxes were done, I was then pleased. 3 months later I get bill in the mail for over $5000 from the IRS saying they updated my returns. Now, at the time I ran all the updates prior to finalizing and printing out my returns. In checking my 25 returns to see I I made an error it had me do an update prior to me being able to reopen my taxes an the amount owed went from approximately $2200 to Approx $7400. Now I have to pay out with late fees due to what ever error was in the program.

When I tried to efile my state tax return, at the last second Turbo Tax tried to slap on another charge. Forty dollars I think, for some kind of premium services. If I had hit send, you would've docked my checking account for this. EGREGIOUS. NO WARNING. DISGUSTING. HIDDEN CHARGE. REPUTATION KILLER.
