I don't know what you all did to turn Turbo Tax software into garbage. I have been using the program for more than 10 years to do my mother's taxes, and it was always very easy. I used for the first time the scan feature for 1099-R's and once scanned much of the data did not appear. I started the old fashion way before scanning and the boxes on my forms did not match up with the template to enter information. I did the State Taxes, and she has never owed State Taxes and now all of a sudden, she does. I'm almost now forced to have a professional tax preparer look this mess I have over!

I found a major problem with the RMD questions while filling out the 1099R. this must be addressed to avoid additional taxes being taken out. currently the only fix is to go into the form and enter the amounts for required and what was actually already distributed.

Entering RMD's and QCD's was quite difficult. I replied Yes to knowing I am subject to RMD's and I entered my required amount. There was NOT a direct question asking if you had QCD's - I finally answered a random question about inheriting a Traditional IRA that led me to entering QCD's. It never asked me if I took all of my RMD!!! It would have been nice since there is a 25% penalty for the amount you don't take. Turbo Tax found an error with the QCD and was ZERO help in fixing the problem. I'm still not sure how I fixed it! Entering new 1099-INT's was difficult until I finally figured out their new format for doing it. Doing my Arizona taxes was, again, difficult - just a bunch of questions up front that didn't make any sense! This is the 2nd year in a row that I couldn't file my state return electronically.

I have used Turbo Tax since the 90's, So it has been good for me to use to do my own taxes, The only issue that I had was they need to show the 60 day rollover of IRA Distribution by check and deposited into another IRA managed by a different fund manager in both state and federal narration. Other than that it was very easy to use and calculations and reviews were accurate. Definitely recommend.

Fails to Unmark estimated items. F8 fails, Menu fails, requires form to be deleted and re-enter data. It has been doing this for 3+ years and I report it every year! I am tired of Beta testing your product for free. Worksheets fail to indicate where and entry will be made on the final schedule. Schedules fail to show where data was entered. It would be nice to have a full graphic of which worksheets feed into which line number and of course, to which form are they entered.

I've used TurboTax for years. I'm looking for an alternative next year. Too many pop ups asking for more money. I had trouble with the download and although I was registered, I ended up having to pay an additional $40 to download the state version.....long story. Anyway, there's got to be better options out there and I'm going to find one.

Not as easy to use as in earlier years, and there is a problem with the software's electronic population from a given financial institution when joint return has both parties with a separate account with that financial institution. It will override the first electronic population with the second and continue doing so vice versa until the filer gives up and enters ony of the party's data by hand.

Easy to use. My only frustration was that this product was put on the market weeks ago but key forms were not available until today (two weeks later). I know this is to ensure that the most recent information/forms are available but the product was worthless to me from the time I bought it until today.

TT did not appear to be as user friendly as in the past years. The most annoying aspect was e-filing FED and electing to print State and mail it in. TT appeared to not let me go beyond a certain point in the filing sequence because I was not e-filing the STATE. Essentially, I had to fast forward to "print for my records and print the state forms that needed to go into the mail. Quit trying to sell me the add-ons and allow for a logical sequence to finish and file the way I want to.

When I initially entered my information, I was informed I owed a penalty due to tax underpayment. It took a good deal of effort to discover how to use the annualized method, which I used and eliminated the penalty. A prompt to suggest use of Form 2106 and how to use the annualized method would have been helpful.
