Review by Dan

Have used Turbo Tax Deluxe for years, but this year Intuit decided to omit several forms in the Deluxe version and now charge an extra $30.00 just because these forms are now part of Turbo Tax Home & Business. So much for customer appreciation and repeat users. The program itself is good and installs easily. Transfers are easy too. Be careful however when installing because the program asks where you want to store your tax document–My Documents or Encrypted. I first choose to store in My Documents–that received a pop-up stating this was risky and was I sure I wanted to do this. I decided perhaps the files should be encrypted and filled out the necessary information to create an account on Intuit’s web site. Account created. Then I saw the light so to speak. Next year I will have to buy Turbo Tax again if I want to transfer my tax data. I haven’t found a way to save this year’s return both on my computer and Intuit’s Web site. Uninstalling the program and reinstalling it still forces one to use Intuit’s site. The option to store in My Documents doesn’t exist once you create an on line account to store your return. Yes, this was my fault for creating an on line account, but there is an element of again taking advantage of the customer on the part of Intuit.
