Turbo Tax returned

2006-03-22
The Item was never opened. The lisings on the box did not list the standard 1040 form, only the business tax forms. In previous years Turbo Tax for business, unlike this year included all these forms. I returned the item. I received an e-mail confirming the return on 3/08/06. But have not received notice that the amount of the refund has been completed. Thank you.

Disappointing for someone who knows what they're doing

2006-03-20
I have used the ProSeries product (the professional version of TurboTax) for several years and tried TurboTax this year. My biggest complaint is that the product is difficult to navigate around because you can only go to the forms or the interview screens. It's a pain to go back and change something because you have to go through the entire interview from the beginning.

Don't ask questions

This is a "no brainer" program. As long as you follow the interview you can get through it. But They don't always ask the questions you need and if you find you've left something out it can take all night trying to figure out how to get the information onto your tax form. It's sometimes difficult to find the information you need. But it beats the heck out of trying to understand the IRS instructions.

Worked great, easy to use

I had to an s-corp return and an LLC return. It worked great for both. No complaints.

Fudiciary return

2006-03-15
Turbo Tax for business worked great for federal return, however it did not work for the NY state return. After spending about 2 hrs on the phone with customer support they did return my money, since they could not make the NY state return work either.

Saved me a lot of paperwork

I love turbo tax, and I was happy to let the software figure out all the forms I needed to file with the typical simple questionnaire format.

Lost Data a Big Problem

2007-04-10
I have a complex return and lost all or some of the data twice during periond while I was entering data in the return. I am writing here after finding that Turbo Tax is heavily editing posts on their forum to minimize the problem. I have used this product for years with great success, but my confidence in its quality and accuracy are severely shaken this year.

GREAT!!!

After doing business taxes manually three years in a row, this program helped us immensely. I recommend it to all small businesses who can't afford an accountant.

I have used TurboTax products for years and have NEVER had problems. The product is fast and easy to use.

Lost Data Problem

2006-03-25
I purchased this product from Amazon. After spending probably 15 hours of work entering information, I returned to my computer today to find that the only information remaining in the tax file was my corporate name and address information. All income, expenses, deductions and depreciation entries were gone.
I've had no problems with my system and no failures so I'm at a loss on what happened to all of my work. I regularly saved a fresh copy and the program itself requires that.
The only thing I did other than work on the return was to file an extension, so maybe it has something to do with that, but I don't know what...
Be very careful, there are other reports on the Turbo Tax Forum of users losing their data, even after filing their returns for this year!
