Though my wife and I have used Turbotax each year for over a decade, the software algorithm has regrettably deteriorated over the years to a point where I might as well have used the official federal and state forms directly on my own. The 2025 Intuit Turbotax Premier is riddled with help links that do not work and certain wizard-style questionnaires take you down an irrelevant path without clear instructions what is happening (1099-NEC and Schedule C as one example). I do not have the confidence that this software helped me prepare my taxes as accurately as it may have done 10 years ago.

What I would really like is if you made the font size readable. You've got this whole big window and the information takes up a small part of it for most pages. You could make the font quite a bit larger and all the information would still fit. I get eyestrain every time. Don't suggest adjusting the font with my screen options BECAUSE THEN THE BUTTON TO ADVANCE DISAPPEARS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE ! and you can't scroll down to it.

I experienced a few glitches that I was able to circumvent. I had a problem on State taxes of a swirling circle displaying "Calculating" & took a long time (+10mins) before I aborted the application. I attempted to contact your Turbo Tax live expert, but I had a difficult time to locate & access the right WEB online site. Instead, somehow I got to a WEB site "Ask for Advice" & needed to pay $50 for a 30 min session. Long story short, I managed to bypass the problem after researching thru AI, and getting an alternate method to resolve the problem without having to pay the $50.00. Additional glitch I encountered, was when the Final transmission of my Electronic filing for Federal & State, the status checked off for Reviewing, Preparing, Validating an had a swirling circle on Transmitting; that brought me back to the beginning start screen to file for Electronic taxes. Very frustrating to repeat process.

TurboTax helped me file tax return for years. It's easy to use and have good support. But it does not have form 8997 for Opportunity zone fund. I need to send separately by mail. Next year Opportunity zone fund needs to pay capital gain, please add this into tax return, so I can still use TurboTax to file tax return. Thanks.

this year I had a trouble with the updates. Don't know weather its Windows 11 or you, the updates took forever to complete. one night i went to bed and in the morning the update had a error message. so I updated again and it went thru. Had to ask ChatGPT how to enter my IP pin, I used the desktop version.

I was unable to install the desktop version without creating a separate administrative id. Tried support. They couldn't figure it out. I stared using the online, but when I got the desktop setup stayed with that. Then I received numerous emails to continue with the online version. I have used Turbotax for many many years. This is the first time it did no work. If the desktop could provide an option to turn on logging during install it might have provided a developer with a clue as to what was going wrong. Normally, I would rate this 5 stars, but I lost 6-8 hours trying to install.

This is my third year using Turbo Tax, each year becomes easier and faster to complete my return. The software is great and covers EVERYTHING in a very easy to navigate and understand manner. But, what makes me so comfortable using Turbo Tax is if I have any questions their customer support is second to none! Every representative I've spoken with has been VERY knowledgeable, friendly and extremely patient with me. I feel confident my returns (Fed & State) are done accurately while getting me the best refund possible. Using Turbo Tax is a great experience, wouldn't have thought I would ever use those words regarding doing my taxes!! Thanks Turbo Tax for making a great product and hiring such friendly patient representatives and training them so well!!

I was very very disappointed in turbo tax this year. The federal government came up with a different amount than Turbo tax on my federal form. On my Oregon form , turbo tax did not have a critical worksheet for calculating tax on farm property sold so I had to do my Oregon tax by hand even though I paid for state version

I entered all my information and for some reason Turbo Tax did not save it even as I saved along the way. I had to reenter everything and complete the process. Now I had completed a draft of my Son's and I don't see that in the ready files to continue working on. This causes delays and rework and I am not happy about it. I will contact help desk to avoid reentering,

This year's Turbo Tax is a little tougher to use. I can't find how to print "Only" forms used for filing. I need a pdf that does not include worksheets. This file is useful when companies ask for your Federal Tax report. A form with all these worksheets means it must be edited to remove those worksheets via a 3rd party pdf application. Turbo Tax used to allow a Filing forms only option when printing, that is not there anymore or it is not easy to find.
