Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Thanks to you and Volvo Girl for directly providing feedback. I can certainly work around it and will. This is the first year on my own after using professionals for years. I will be on the look out for the prompts to input dollar amounts like capital loss carryovers etc when i walk though the process.

However, I am now just curious (for curiosity reasons) what proprietary information TurboTax (and for that matter H&R Block etc) include/add in their 1040 files that my accountant did  not? Because the idea that a platform like TurboTax can't suck in a standard 1040 with a .pdf file still is pretty amazing.

Thanks for your help.
