ACCESS to UPDATES
TurboTax 2017 was working AOK in Feb 18 when 1st loaded to obtain IRS extension request. Jul-Aug 18 could not get updates and multiple attempts to reach CSR for solutions failed. Finally, after about a 1-hr wait, CSR came on-line and we worked over an hour to locate and implement a solution that updated TurboTax [worked AOK with my data]. Thanks.
For over 10 years I have been a Quicken and TurboTax user. Both tools have been very useful to maintain and reconcile data. I recommend both.

Still Easy To Use
I've been using TT since the late 90's. It's always been reliable and I now use it for my business too. I still have my accountant do my business return but the rest is fairly easy. So easy to import investment accounts and w2s. This year I am missing the previous year comparison. Even though I can always compare it was good to see if I missed something.

State taxes is a disaster
I have spent an extra 3-4 hours trying to get the state tax downloaded. The deluxe product is suppose to have it but the system kept trying to charge me $44 for it.
Eventually after a number of calls and some waiting, etc, it was finally downloaded. calculations seemed to work and i was ready to efile but the system wanted to charge me an additional $44. I was willing to pay the $25 regular rate but the system seems to think i don't have the state forms.
Too frustrating to try to call. I can file by mail quicker than mess with turbotax support.
The same thing happen last year but after it was downloaded, it worked as it was supposed to.
I have been a turbotax user for 18 years but thinking about changing next year.

awful experience
There was zero help with the basic package. I got no tax support and ended up spending HOURS on my return with NO HELP when I had questions! I paid the amount I have paid a professional in the past except I paid TurboTax for me to do all the work. WILL NEVER RETURN AGAIN.

Good experience
I've been using Turbotax for many years. We skipped one year and used a tax-preparation service, which didn't save us any money, but many times over in cost. The software is easy to use; but once in a great while, when I need specific help, it is not always easy to find the right answer and getting a live person seems to be not so intuitive...

Deluxe Turbo Tax 2017
I had a difficult time finding the section of the instructions page for the state return where the taxpayer can authorize allowing the tax preparer to talk to the IRS.

Filing Failure!
For some odd reason, my 2016 and 2017 electronic filings didn't actually go through and I had no idea until the I.R.S. sent me a letter! Then when I tried to file the 2017 return electronically, it gets rejected because the AGI doesn't match the previous years. That is because, the previous year was 2016 and that didn't get filed either! I have the two print outs for both years confirming the date for my payment to be withdrawn and the amounts and it appeared that my filing was complete but it wasn't! I should have received some warning from Turbo Tax stating my returns still haven't been filed!
