Arizona requires a worksheet listing by source the Federal tax free income taxable in Arizona. I had to go back to Federal inputs to reconstruct the entries manually when the worksheet could have been populated from 1099 Div and K-1s. Please can this be automated going forward.

The product was noticeable worse this year than in previous years, with basic flaws and incapacities. For example, in step-by-step mode it was impossible to add supporting details. There were certain line items that appeared, and no way to find where they came from, or links to instructions to understand what was happening. The program is still good, but the rate of degradation is alarming. Apparently you don't even want to take the review, just keep cycling back to this lousy AI-infested interface, that is incompatible with my typing and keeps introducing typos. I'll just add some words support maybe so you'll accept it, shall I?

I didn't care for the format changes made this year, as I was used to the previous format and the new step-through entry process kept making me feel that I missing things. Found myself going back to recheck entries. Also import from my e*Trade account never worked as I have a 2-step verification and it kept telling me that info returned from the institution said that I was entering incorrect login/password info. I was able to log in via my cell, so I knew that my entries were accurate.

I have been using TurboTax for years. This year I found it annoying. The save feature didn't work on my MacBook and the encrypted save made it worse. I found it too automated and opaque so I was never sure what was going on in the background and whether the automated calculations were accurate or correct. Not a happy user. I will try another product next year.

Have always been a fan of the product, but it insists I use e-file for my state return. When I print the state tax documents it even tells me not to mail the forms because I have sent the state return via e-file. Very strange and I cannot work around it.

I did it all by myself. I just answered this in a previous review in the program! The taxes are essentially a plug & chug process for me. The Interest & Dividend download/presentation was much more straight forward prior to 2024(?) The current format is unnecessarily tedious to crosscheck/verify between the electronic download and hard copies. The USAA link to download Interest did not work.

Turbo Tax 2025 continues to serve as an adequate income tax software application - but it also continues to be unnecessarily unwieldy in use... to be honest, it is WAY EASIER to consult Chat GPT to get advice on how to use your software than to use your instructions!! But one obvious suggestion: There needs to be a simple way to make the fonts bigger OR to allow the user to expand the screen. It's ridiculous that it should be so hard to see what's on the screen...I randomly asked 8 people for one recommendation and 7 people came up with that - completely unprompted! - as their overwhelming first issue. Funny that I can expand this comments screen, but cannot do that in your application. (Sound of hand slapping forehead) Using Turbo Tax is a choice in a weak field of options.

TT is generally useful for completing Federal and State tax returns however it includes some extremely annoying and persistent (over the course of many years) 'features' that are infuriating! There are many cases where the current year's TT asks me to enter prior year's values even though one of the advertised and useful features of TT is the 'import' of prior year's return into the current year's return so that I don't have to remember all those values. The 2025 TT continues problems in easily completing the Foreign Income Tax Credit calculations and schedules. The problem begins with the Income section where the interview does not itemize more than 1 source of Foreign Income per broker. The 2025 TT was improved by providing explicit instructions on how to manage Foreign Income which was helpful however those neglected to mention if one has multiple country sources to use the VAR entry and to total those into a single entry per broker. It might be better if TT would simply collect the foreign tax amounts, the country source and the income amounts that generated the taxes individually and decide what to do with them later in the interview. Then during the Foreign Tax Credit calculation part of the interview for some unknown reason TT automatically first uses any Foreign Tax originating from a K1 even though that amount might not be the largest (the Fed requires the largest amount to be listed first on the schedule) which the explicit instructions say to 'delete' and re-enter later. Why doesn't TT bucket this amount with the other foreign taxes so the user can more easily select the largest - or better simply fix this entire flow so the user doesn't have to waste so much time with fussy unproductive allocations ? That is what such software is supposed to do for us - RIGHT ?

I had to restart a new turbo tax file because the prompts were confusing. I had imported my 1099-DIV, 1099-B from Fidelity Investments. But one question was let's see how your 1099-xxx are. It went to a screen to import when I had already imported. So, because of this I imported again and now I had twice things and more than tripled my taxes to pay. The other choose was to skip the import or put in the name of the institution and import. It was like it lost my imports. When it say's let check your 1099-xxx. I think if you had imported that it should go to the page you get if you choose skip import. Another thing I found is my import worked but it still had one from my 2024 taxes. It had zero dollars but it was the same thing I already downloaded. Why was the old one from 2024 kept when I imported new 1099-xxx.

This is the first time TurboTax has missed a big area for me. I have mulitple 1099's to pull down from several companies and TurboTax will not let me automatically pull the values in. Additionally, when there is an error in my tax return, caught by TurboTax, it does not walk me through the solution.
