It is a shame for Intuit to sell this unfinished software
As you can see from the attached screenshot, there is no way to enter mortgage info. There is no way to enter property tax info neither (see the second screenshot). I bought this software for calculating the estimated tax I owed or overpaid so I would know if I need to pay estimated tax to IRS. But this software can not do that since there is no way to enter mortgage and property tax info. Intuit should disclose such limitation in front so customers will know that before they buy it. In my case, I spent almost one day to enter estimated W2 income, interest/dividend income, rental income, and now there is no way to enter deduction for mortgage and property tax. I basically wasted my whole day because of the unfinished software from Intuit. If I knew such limitation, I would not even try it in the first place. I know digit product is unable to ask for the refund. But in this case, Intuit not just sells incomplete software, but also waste customer's time. Should they feel they should do something to cover the customer's lost in this case? Or they just count these unethical revenues from us to their 2018 balance sheet and continue making money from such bad practices? I totally understand IRS needs more time to finish the tax law. But why Intuit cannot wait for the law to be finalized and starts to sell the software after that? Missing mortgage and property tax makes such software totally useless. It is not something we can do it today and finalize it later through the software update.

I've been paying a CPA at least a grand every year to do my business taxes and every year I get notified by the IRS that I've underplayed and I have to send in more money. Not with this! It walked me thru every single deduction (the things you don't think about) and I actually got notified that I'm getting money back!!! AND for very little extra you can get audit insurance on your return! My CPA doesn't offer THAT! Love it!! AND I had difficulty downloading it and their live support completely walked me thru re-installation of it and stayed on the phone until he was sure it was working!

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than Block by a mile

I found a glitch in my HR Block software, which I'd been using for years, and couldn't override it, so the software would NOT allow me to efile my return. I tried to call Block....but alas no phone number, so then I tried to chat, but no one was available nor would anyone have been able to answer my question about Form 8829 and their apparent lack of knowledge with the tax laws so I just bought TurboTax. I didn't do the interviews but took the other way and completed my return in an hour or so, efiled it and my refund is going to be deposited in 2 days. The refund will have taken 10 days from submission of return to my bank and HR Block would not even let me e-file. I will use Turbo Tax from now on.

4.0 out of 5 stars good reliable product for taxes

I have used Home and business for years and have learned that until all IRS forms are released and TurboTax incorporates them you need to hold off on using it but you can begin using it if you want just have to comeback when the IRS releases the forms. Make sure you know which forms you are going to use to verify. The major change this year is that overrides were sketchy as most over rides did not work unless you went to the source data point (this is something new) and I do not like it . When you get to the source the override is greyed (it does not allow an override)but you can overtype it but it not an override and you loose your original value. The new tax law has so fine points to it and TurboTax has captured them especially around business (both schedule C,E). There is something take bugs me it asks at times if you want to help with a community question. It does not fill in the account which it has . Also when you login it does not take you to the question you wanted to answer. Maybe this part only works in the online version but definitely fails in the PC version.

I HAVE USED tURBOTAX FOR THE PAST TEN YEARS. IT HAD EVOLVED FROM A FAIRLY SIMPLE FORMAT TO A QUESTION AND ANSWER THAT MAKES IT A LITTLE MORE CUMBERSOME TO NAVIGATE. YOU CANNOT DRILL DOWN INTO A SPECIFIC SUBJECT AS WELL AS YOU COULD IN THE PAST. HOWEVER IT IS STILL A VERY SOLID PROGRAM AND FAIRLY EASY TO UNDERSTAND. DON'T SKIP AROUND BUT GO THROUGH THE STEPS AT LEAST TO BEGIN WITH.

First time I've bought download TurboTax, which was nice, because my disc drive is on the fritz. However, the Amazon Download utility seems to have some bugs. Kept getting apparent failure of the Download utility, but before I gave up I checked downloads, and there TurboTax was! Opened the download and installed TurboTax Home and Business smoothly. A less computer-savvy customer would have been burning up the Help Line.

if you have a small business or have investments this program is so helpful. This years didn't coordinate with QuickBooks as well as in the past, so I had to do more manual inserts, but it is a time saver and I love that I can send the taxes off and do a payment so easily. No more running to the post office on tax day to stand in long lines for me!

TurboTax is the de facto tax prep software. In a previous profession, I did tax returns professionally - by hand! Yep. Pencil and paper. I've watched TurboTax and other programs evolve over the past 30 years and think TurboTax is hands-down the best option. Powerful, easy to use. Wonderful wizards. Links to both Intuit and IRS help.

Only downside: I think their tiered pricing is silly and over-priced. It's the same freakin' code base and only subtle feature differences between the various products. Home and Business costs more than TWICE what the Premier version costs (MSRP). And how many people have a small side-business? A lot. So, I feel a bit gouged each year. Come on, Intuit. Play nice and just sell one version. It's not like it costs you anything more.
