Rated 2 out of 5 by from Stressful and confusing with investments Overall nice format of the website, but anything complicated and I was completely lost on how to handle it. I had 150 trades and it was asking for information on each of them, but it wouldn't tell me what it wanted until the very end during final review. Then the bulk feature wasn't working (wasn't applying the change). Then it kept missing things to fix (like my Chase form didn't have my address, but it only asked me to fill in my state...then later asked for the city, then on last review asked for my street address - it should have caught all that the initial review time). It's like i kept clicking to review and file forever. Just over and over, like due just find all the mistakes at once and let me submit. So many screens (and screens tricking you into paying for other stuff, not cool, not okay). And the help section didn't actually help you out - probably just trying to get us to pay for the expert person who can come help you. Anyway, I ended up filing late by 11 minutes. The timer at the top was wrong apparently (unless I get until Hawaii time to file).

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Efficient TurboTax Too Expensive The service is intuitive and efficient, however, between filing for federal and state taxes and having TurboTax take the charge out of my refund I was charged roughly 30% of my refund to file my taxes. As a result, I will look into H&R Block and other services as I likely will not be filing my taxes through them again next year. This price was also with an apparent discount that was usurped by the absorbent amount I was charged. Filing felt like receiving a backhanded compliment—legally required to file taxes and they were done quickly but TurboTax tacked on nullifying charges to my refund.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Review for TurboTax Live Expert There was an issue found when my files were being reviewed, which was confusing as I had input everything correctly. The CPA live expert, Bhavya, helped me and the issue was resolved (she thinks it may have been a glitch in the TurboTax system as nothing had changed when we re-did a form).
