Rated 4 out of 5 by from Turbo Tax is a mixed bag TurboTax is a mixed bag, great for simple returns but mediocre for complicated personal returns. I used Turbo for my son's simple return and it was great to quickly enter his simple info - W-2 only - and get his federal and state withholding taxes refunded. However in doing our returns I found the product wasn't as good as in the past. Turbo employees tell you to double check any info imported into the program and some recommend manually entering the data. Turbo is particularly weak in dealing with college expenses paid through a 529 plan. The prompt's aren't clear enough and lead to confusion, particularly if you used 529 funds to reimburse yourself for qualified education expenses like rent & food incurred by your full time student. One Turbo rep was flat out wrong in stating you couldn't use 529 money to pay student rent - the answer of course is more complicated and nuanced. Turbo needs to step it up next year or I'll be trying other products.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from It Couldn’t Be Any Easier This is my tenth year using Turbo Tax and it gets even better every year. We always get Turbo Tax Max so we can sleep at night knowing if we are audited by the IRS, Turbo Tax will have our backs.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Turbo Tax is OK Too expensive for the service. When I tried to engage a live consultant I waited for over an hour and then came up with a technical error. Rated 3 stars because of the ease of deduction. Other than that I can't find anything positive to say. Disappointed. Definitely shopping around next year
