Better than TaxSlayer
"TurboTax did my taxes basically completely for me and TaxSlayer tried to charge me hidden fees. I got more back and less hassle. I'll be using them every year from now on."

Stress Free Return
"I filed with TurboTax for the last few years. Before that, I've used H&R Block and TaxSlayer. There's nothing wrong with their programs, I just like how TurboTax has the Intuit feature that links to other applications that help manage money throughout the year. I also had questions regarding my solar credit this year, and the CPA, Doug, was able to walk me through it in two minutes. Very nice to have the assurance I filed my federal returns correctly."

Peacefully Easy
"It was easy, not nerve wrecking at all. I was actually very impressed. I was frustrated with TaxSlayer this year as it was stumbling so much and was not loading the different schedules as it should. So, after several hours of ranting and raving, I shut down TaxSlayer and opened TurboTax instead. Then...I breathed.."

"Much better than TaxSlayer. I had a lot of issues with them this year."
Ladykay2416, New York
2021 TurboTax Live Assisted Basic
I switched from TaxSlayer
"I was using TaxSlayer for previous years because they seemed to be the easiest and most helpful for not costing extra. But after this year when I moved states mid-year, I found it extremely difficult to add multiple states' W-2s and go through the address of each and to double-check. Also, it became frustrating when my return would drop significantly and TaxSlayer wouldn't explain why. TurboTax had a "how did this affect my return" after every W-2 you added. After two days of trying to figure out what went wrong, I decided to check out TurboTax and it immediately had a selection in the beginning for having lived in multiple states and how to double-check every W-2 for numerical accuracy and residential accuracy. I instantly filed, and I am so grateful I did. Thank you for making taxes a little bit easier, and for making it free."

Turbo Tax Is The Best Tax Software on the Market!
"Got me a maximum refund by finding and offering credits that TaxSlayer did not! I went from a $102 Federal Refund to a $1600 Refund with TurboTax! Don't file until you give them a try!"

2022 TurboTax Online Deluxe
Super fast, easy to navigate
"I started out using TaxSlayer, but the site was not loading at all. They needed information I did not have. I decided to use TurboTax because the site was loading quickly, guided me through every step, and I felt secure to use personal information. I will definitely be using this service next year and recommend it to family and friends!"

Turbo Tax is more than Good
"Is good at explaining the whys and hows, has been improved with the years, and other software is confusing. I have tried H&R Block and TaxSlayer. Do not force you to take other services."

Turbo Tax
"Turbo Tax Deluxe was easy to use however the software only allows one state tax return to be filed before you are charged again. I have two to three tax returns I file for my kids. I'm going to look at H&R Block and Tax Slayer next year to see if they allow more state returns to be filed. A big letdown in this area! I expected more for my money!"

Not good
"The free filing offer was a joke for me. Tax Slayer was better or just higher an independent PA. Did not have a problem with the accountants they gave me, but the architecture of the software and the fee structure is a joke."
BA22
2021 TurboTax Live Assisted Deluxe
VERY DISAPPOINTED
"I paid for the TurboTax Deluxe prior to getting to the end to e-file and request that some of my refund be withheld. Unfortunately, I did not see this option. I had customer support contact me, and after being on the phone for 20 minutes while they researched, I was informed this was not an available option with Turbo Tax. I have used TaAct, Tax Slayer, and H&R Block in the past, each one had this option available prior to filing. I inquired about a refund and was sent information regarding applying for one, with the caveat that a refund may not be applicable after review. I went ahead and filed, instead. This is the last time I will ever be using TurboTax to file a return!"

Over Priced
"Its easy to use, however you charge $59.00 for the disc than it cost me another $41.50 to file? The sad truth is that I've been using Turbo Tax for years and its never cost me this much to file! Will probably go use Tax Slayer or some other company next year! So much for customer loyalty!"

"I normally like TurboTax, but it added $80 of goodies and wouldn't let me take them off. Just a simple return with the standard deduction. Too bad the TaxSlayer website isn't working."
