Not focused at all for foreign based people with no W2, rental income in the USA left behind, stocks (with foreign withholding pecularities) and other very common but confusing situations. There is really no good slution for the millions fo folks abroad and it does not really get better as the years move on.

I have never been so frustrated. I had a problem with my employer withholding Wisconsin taxes in error (I live in Illinois) and Turbotax was completely unable to offer any guidance and kept giving me errors with no guidance or suggestions. Then, after I thought I figured it out, paid for an additional state filing, passed all the error checks, and went to transmit - THEN it tells me there's a problem because field 16 is blank - again with no guidance at all. I am also continually frustrated by Turbotax asking for information from forms I downloaded or previous year tax returns when it should know that already. The only reason I haven't switched to another software is I don't want to deal with it not knowing my previous information. If Turboxtax makes me find it and enter it anyway, what's the point? Just once I would like to do my taxes without having to search up terms, rules, and explanations on other sources because Turbotax does not explain common situations. Premier should be capable of handling kids in college and basic investments/401K without my having to continually search for other references.

your program crashes on people when it is trying to transmit after people sent hours on it. Also, why won't it all you to just upload forms that can't be imported so they do not have to mailed. The import function only allows you from a limited amount of companies.

This software is very easy to use. I purchased a more expensive version because we have rental property in another state and have gone through extensive renovations which we could not use as a deduction before. This version allowed me to list money spent on my rental property, but I found it difficult to do the same with my primary residence. I renovated three bathrooms in my primary dwelling, but I couldn't find where to list this expense($9000). I also replaced my gutters for $6500 and again I had no easy resolution to deducting this expense. In spite of this problem, I am sure that my regular deduction covered most of this situation.

I usually don't have issues with Turbo Tax, but I use turbo tax to file taxes for mine and my children (minors). My return was rejected and it still counted it as one of the five allowed transmissions, because of this it wouldn't let me re-transmit because I exceed the allotted amount of usage. Since this was a rejected transmission I don't think it should've counted and the re-transmission should've been accepted.

I found this years product a little more difficult to use than previous years, asking questions that fidelity Financial didn't provide and said were not necessary since they are a Registered Investment Company. Example. we paid a foreign tax on a registered Investment mutual fund dividend; you wanted to know the amount of the dividend; had to ask our advisor to research and advise the amount. Hope we got the correct info since there were 50+ pages of dividends to review.

I have been using TurboTax to file my taxes for the past 6 years. It's very convenient to do your taxes from home. I could see there were a lot of improvements in the user interface in the Desktop version. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because the Mac Desktop version of the software that I used to file tax returns hit a snag after I was half-way through. I thought it saved all my data but it didn't. I had to start all over again. But because I used Turbotax last year as well, I could quickly import the info from the old file and didn't lose much time.

I found 2025 TurboTax very difficult to use. The downloads fromm brokage firms was easy, but too much data was loaded into TurboTax. This would normally not be a problem, however with one of my accounts (Pershing), many stock calls were purformed, resulting in many of the flags to be set wrong. This caused me hurs and hours of work trying to sort out this mess to get all of the TurboTax errors corrected. I believe I must now go to a Tax Accoount for future tax preparation. TurboTax greatly complicated my tax preparation and failed me this year.

I like the importing of my brokerage tax documents. I was a bit disappointed with the help feature. I expected it to have more of an AI feel. I wanted clarification on a schedule B Div item and it was all over the place and useless when it came down to it. I posed the question to Gemini and it gave a perfect response. It won't be long before Gemini is doing taxes. Overall I'm glad I used the product because my taxes are done.

2025 TurboTax Premier program not nearly as user fredly as previously. Montana State income tax could only enter 1 Medical Savings Account and we legitimately had 2. Worked with Turbotax help and hy indicted the 2025 program did not support 2 MSA accounts. Turbotax last year did so why not 2025. Not happy.
