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.

A lot of glitches for tax year 2025. Multiple times the application would launch and then quit, not opening without restarting computer. Consistently attempted to add Canadian fund information even when indicating "no" to living anywhere outside of USA. In past versions, updates were frequent but this one had maybe one or 2 and then nothing (updates seemingly necessary, see above). Frustrating.

The import of the information from your W2 needs work. You need to inform your user s that the 401-K information is automatically included with your income & taxes paid. When you get to the part to do your e-file clicking the continue button initiates the e-file but the status bar does no indicate this information. The fact that you can't even ask a question about the application without being charged is unacceptable. You need to have a non-tax expert do some quality control of the application. The fact that support is not available to ask any question about the application is cheap.

I am unable to e-file my friend's tax return. I have used turbo tax to file for him for two years with no problem. Error message keeps coming on saying there is a problem. I have deleted cache and cookies and nothing helps. Wasted time trying to make it work. Will have to file by mail. Very unhappy.

I've been using TurboTax for over 30 years. Maybe not next year. The price increase was more than I expected and I had issues with the importing of information from last years return. Not all data was transferred requiring me to enter it manually. I'm disappointed.

the software all seems to work pretty well overall. the document imports especially were a lot nicer than how I used to just manually transcribe everything over, since I was being cheap. but, for the last few parts where I had to enter in the date and my state and stuff, please change the dropdown lists to comboboxes. also, (and this one is really nitpicky, even for me), there was a piece of the UI saying "we found this deduction for you", but it was just the standard deduction. so yeah, where would I be if it weren't for you helping me out there, right? also, I think that the "AI-generated review topics" card above this text box is stealing focus when the selected review topics changes, and it's eating my keystrokes. I am probably a faster typist, so it is really noticeable for me. also, why are you requiring me to enter in a review title and nickname? come on, there is no way you are getting anything useful there. and you didn't even set a max length on the nickname field, for shame.

I enrolled in the live support. But it took me 3 times to get a person that helped me with my situation on RMD's with precious metals - using the option that you could pay from another IRA account so you didn't have to sell your metals to pay the RMD. (turbo tax software does not allow you to identify you are using one IRA to pay other RMD re4quirements. Austin was very helpful by saying that I could add a note explaining this. (hope this works).

Great for federal and state but oh my. If there is a city involved and you commute in and out of the city Turbo Tax prevents efiling of federal and state. This sucks as Turbo Tax won't take the correct numbers as it thinks something different than my reality.

in app help/search SUCKs - easier to google it - help should take you right to entry and not make you try to figure out how TT wants the question worded. Many items that require a what did you do or pay in previous year do not automatically populate wasting your time to find it and hope you got the right info.

I was not as happy this year, as in the past. I had downloading from brokerage firms difficulties, and had to process a couple times. It seems some numbers "changed" from one to the next. I had to do a careful review with records (hard copies) against what downloaded. I'm not sure how that was possible, and could have been "user error," but instructions seem less clear this year, somehow.
