Pros

The “best solution” they could offer was a discount on software I shouldn’t need to purchase in the first place.

David D.

President

“its ease of use, can perform practically every calculation relating to tax filing.”

geradi b.

“Customer service could be improved during tax season”

Brenda D.

Owner

Pros

“The above is for an investment pool for my elderly parents structured as a Partnership, so it will be able to receive a stepup basis when they pass away so that they can seamlessly transfer assets to their grandchildren.”

D. R.

Member

“Can go directly to forms or use screen by screen questions.”

LINDA F.

Controller

“The fact that it's needed at all instead of our taxes being automatically calculated and filed, at least as far as basic returns are considered.”

steve r.

designer

Cons

“Of course, the more complex your tax filing is, the more you are charged for filing. ”

geradi b.

“There are features I do not take advantage of, but the cost seems like it could have a lower option.”

Stacey T.

Center Director

Cons

“There is no ability to enter a 1099 (a 1099 has simple numbered boxes, but TurboTax business does not, nor do they use the same or even similar terms and as I found out after a 2 hour call there simply is no way to enter foreign tax expenses into TurboTax business for a partnership).”

D. R.

Member

“It has some glitches from time to time, refusing to update certain info. ”

Naima H.

Tax expert

“The main downsides are that it only works on Windows computers, and it can be a bit expensive.”

Renee G.
