People who use TurboTax to prepare their taxes online faced similar issues last year.Īs news of the change started to spread two weeks ago, longtime users took their outrage to the Internet. #TURBOTAX DELUXE BEST PRICE 2015 UPGRADE#Now, they will need to upgrade to TurboTax Deluxe, which costs up to $30 more than the $20 Basic. #TURBOTAX DELUXE BEST PRICE 2015 DOWNLOAD#I have entered some data from my Dec 31 brokerage statement to estimate current taxes but download won't be available from brokerage until next month.Customers with simpler returns face a similar issue: They can no longer use TurboTax Basic if they want to itemize deductions (such as mortgage interest or charitable donations) on Schedule A, instead of claiming the standard deduction of $6,200 for a single filer or $12,400 for a married couple. #TURBOTAX DELUXE BEST PRICE 2015 UPDATE#They update tax change for medical deductions from 10% to 7.5% on Schedule A based on recent legislation. Many of the forms were not available until recently, 8606-T (Roth form) is still not available. There have been several updates since I purchased in early January. Texas doesn't have State income tax but I think all Turbo versions include 1 state download. Last few years, I have used Mac to do my taxes without any issues, so I'm not sure about Windows. If you buy deluxe version, you can easily upgrade to one of the others within program or by phone, which I have done in the past. If you have a lot of investment trades or capital gains in taxable account (Sch D) or Self Employment Income (Sch C), it may make sense to upgrade to Premier or Home & Business versions. My Brokerage Statement, once available, imports easily into Premier version. Premier covers Investments & Real Estate and I haven't had any issues with any schedules but I don't use Schedule C. Last few years I have purchased Turbo Tax Premier from Costco or Sam's Club. I have always thought based on the unpredictability of overtime in the current job that if I get back or pay <$1000 total to the feds and resident state I did pretty good. Taxes are done for this year and I am thinking about withholding amounts or in the non-resident case prepayments. Update: the non-resident state return has been accepted. In the past I have resisted the idea of doing taxes “in the cloud” but have since realized the returns are “in the cloud” somewhere anyway.ĭoes anyone who uses taxact know if you can file two state returns. The fed return was accepted immediately so I guess that means no one stole my identity and filed for a refund. Turbotax accepted my state returns but I have no confirmation they were accepted by those state or if someone has filed for me. It cost a lot (IMHO), between the original software, one additional state and e-file fees about $150. If I didn’t have any previous experience with my filing situation and accepted the Turbotax returns I would have sent the resident state much more than needed. Turbotax offered to let me buy an Amazon gift certificate with my refund even though I had no refund due. #TURBOTAX DELUXE BEST PRICE 2015 SOFTWARE#The software asked me a few times about health care insurance and suggested I go to the to see if I could get a better deal. You should still NEVER accept the bottom line if it doesn’t look right. I have found in the past that if you have everything ready and sit down for a few hours and do all returns at once it works a little better. When I corrected this I had to force the change to flow to the state tax returns.Īfter one of the updates I was led to the file your taxes screen even though I wasn’t any way near done. I fixed that by creating the proper form for the resident state.ĭuring the idiot check I found some idiot had entered on the fed form the resident state taxes paid amount as a refund. I use the questions method and it never asked any questions about taxes paid to another state on income received from another state. Turbotax said everything was fine but I knew the number for the resident state tax for was wrong and printed some of the forms to do an idiot check. I completed the second state (full year resident) and went through all reviews. I was asked for information I know was available in the 2013 return I imported but this is a normal aggravating ongoing bug. I remembered to do the non-resident state first as recommended many years ago by Turbotax. #TURBOTAX DELUXE BEST PRICE 2015 FREE#I downloaded the free upgrade to Premier and later downloaded my second state. My Turbo Tax experience was about normal. I finally completed my 2014 taxes this morning.
