Review by M Cox

I got TurboTax Deluxe only to find there is no Schedule C for small businesses. So I gave it to my daughter. I’ve used TurboTax each and every year it has been available. Now I had to pay more than double for this version. I’m buying H&R Block software next year. It’s not enough that TurboTax has such a commanding market share, but now extreme greed has appeared. Some marketing genius decided to divide up the product into pieces to alienate all but the most basic customers.

So I’m switching next year. The reviews say that H&R Block software is equally as good. Now I regret buying TurboTax, especially when I can chat with a tax professional extensively at H&R Block. I may buy it anyway this year if I need any assistance or TurboTax is vague in some area. I have some property in China and TurboTax is messed up in a certain area and I have to do some strange things to make it work. Somebody at TurboTax is out of date and doesn’t know about the purchasing process.
