Had a very difficult time returning to where I had been before when entering/discarding 1099-Q information which turned out to not be required for a dependent college student with a 529 distribution and part time income. Also, there was no appropriate guiding query or check regarding student campus job exemption from FICA and Medicare withholding.

You need to work on the capital gains input forms, Terrible system. you continue to change it each year for the worst!!! Have someone enter 30 different items especially for bonds. There is no sorting capability and Cut and paste ability which you have had in previous iterations. I had to go through each one several bonds for 12 months each to enter cost and purchase dates. very annoying. In addition downloading information from brokerages is cumbersome, again you've made it more difficult.

TurboTax Seriously dropped the ball this year. First, it took until the end of March before I was able to accurately enter the values associated with my children's 529 plans, and I had to muck around in forms mode to get the numbers to work correctly. Second, it required a lot of shifting between forms mode and the normal interface to get my K-1 investment income to be entered correctly. Third, I saved and submitted my returns, and then TurboTax CHANGED THE NUMBERS after saving. Until everything processes/clears, I can only HOPE that TurboTax actually transmitted accurate numbers. Fourth, as I sit there typing this feedback, your feedback interface keeps deleting/changing the characters I'm typing in. It's as if TurboTax no longer cares at all about accuracy or usefulness. What the heck happened to this once great product?

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 ?

user for >20 years. Works fine, but UI still has annoying features: 1. Why don't you standardize text on buttons, such as "OK" or "Continue" or ... Just use one 2. Put OK/continue buttons at same position on screen, so I don't have to go mouse seeking on each page 3. When a help topic is opened, make it open at same position and size as the last one 4. When updating, have to click "continue"/OK/yes too many times. I think I've started the update, but when I return to computer some time later, it's still waiting on yet another OK. 5. Spend some quality time reviewing TurboTax's UI and make us all happier!

The federal tax return went well. The CA state return was not well implemented with TurboTax. I had to manually enter much of the information without any confidence that the data entered was correct since there were no instructions in TTax for the CA return.

Once I would have given turbotax 5 stars. But no longer. Don't use online vendors such as Big HomeTax to purchase Turbotax software, as they are unreachable and have apparently scammed me with a SOFTWARE license number that was cancelled the day before they sold it to me... The problem with Turbotax here is that they can clearly see that Big Home Tax is operating online and they DON'T SHUT THEM DOWN. INTUIT/TURBOTAX, SHAME ON YOU FOR BEING BIG ENOUGH TO BE THE #1 SOFTWARE FOR TAXES BUT NOT STOPPING FRAUDSTERS / SHUTTING DOWN THOSE WHO ARE STEALING FROM YOU AND YOUR CUSTOMERS in BROAD INTERNET DAYLIGHT.

Have been using Turbo Tax for a lot of years and also easy and accurate. The Step by Step interview process helps to ensure all topics are covered. I even got advice and recommendations for a deprecation deduction I would have otherwise missed. Filing is super easy and can be assured this is done completely

Information TurboTax (TT) provides about Schedule K-1 is far too limited. TT needs to allow direct importation of the information and give more guidance about completing the associated forms. This took me A LOT of time to sort out. Form 8990 is not supported AT ALL and definitely needs to be added.

After a respite where we had more complex returns given the death of two family members, we came back to compete our own return (which we had done for years previously). TurboTax never ceases to amaze me with its simplicity that can make a moderately complicated return seem easy with the guided process. The ability to import records from our investment providers is such a powerful function that make it possible for us to do the return ourselves. It's good to back with TurboTax!
