Review by Michael
I have been using Turbo Tax for years. I have found it easy to use. I don’t usually skip sections. Just easier for me to go through each section. No problem importing my data from the prior year. A long while back I switched to another product because of calculations errors Turbo Tax made and while it guarantees the calculations it was such a hassle to prove to them it wasn’t worth it so I switched. I came back a few years later and there was no issue importing my data from a competing product.
I like the guided menus. And this year’s product seems to be just as easy to use and helpful. This Premier product does offer features that use. It may be more than others may need like stocks and bonds, for instance.
While it comes with one state download, it does not include a state e-file. That gets to be expensive. As is buying another state download which I need to do. I have had issues with e-filing my resident state because Intuit did not include a copy of the other state return which is a requirement. So I don’t e-file and mail it in. They said they would fix that, but I haven’t seen anything that says they did.
All in all I like this product and it makes my life much easier. I remember the days of taking pen to the 1040 and other forms and using a calculator… talk about stress. I recommend this particular edition if you need the financial guidance for your investments. Otherwise try a less expensive version. You should find it very easy and intuitive.
