Rated 3 out of 5 by from tax return 2023 I was under the impression that my taxes were complete and submitted on April 15. I found out on May 6 that my taxes weren't submitted!! I was really upset! Turbotax didn't contact me about this, I was trying to beat the April 18 deadline! They say you have a tax expert who checks your taxes, it didn't happen to me...and it costs $242 to send! I have used Turbotax for years and this is the first year that I am dissatisfied. As much as they charge, there should be someone who writes a quick text/email saying that your taxes have not been submitted.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Not yet user-friendly for out of country filers! You are still not user-friendly for non-resident filers. I am an US citizen, but have been living out of the US the last 20+ years. Entering foreign accounts should have been broken down first by country (with exchange rate used), and then by bank (I almost always have multiple accounts for each bank). I entered the foreign accounts info, but was not automatically routed to the foreign income section. I had to hunt for that.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from This year Turbo Tax is the greatest and easiest! I've been using Turbo Tax for over 40 years. There were several years that I had so much different problems with Turbo Tax, but the past 5 years it's been great!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Turbo Tax works but there is room for improvement 1. Not easy to figure out where the interest earned from a foreign bank is to be reported. They don't send a 1099 INT. 2. For options trading, the cost basis is shown as zero in brokerage statements (such as Fidelity) whereas the proceeds report the net profit (sale amount - cost basis). Turbotax forces me to review each such item to confirm that cost basis is not to be changed. I had quite a few entries (hundreds) and had to make 3 clicks to review (confirm) each entry manually. It is huge waste of time and frustrating. Turbotax and Fidelity should talk and figure out a way so that we are not forced to spend so much time for manually changing these entries.
