Thanks for the idea. My main problem is that even if I do this, I don't know what I'm looking for in the home office section to know if it worked or if I'm entering the right numbers in the right places. I'm so used to TT doing everything for you that it makes me incredibly uncomfortable when I need to force or enter something manually outside of the the step by step walk-through. Yeah these tax changes have wreaked havok on everyone this year. I haven't determined yet if they are a good thing or a bad thing, but right now I'm not happy with any of it. Better explanations and more examples might would go a long way in helping taxpayers at least understand why something has changed and a better idea of what they should be looking for. I don't have to like the changes, but I can get used to them if I understand the purpose.
There were a lot of changes that TT had to incorporate and some were pretty complex, so I get that there will be issues that come up they hadn't thought about or areas that need some improvement. I spent 15 years developing and "breaking" software for quality control purposes. I break TT all the time without even trying, so there are definitely areas they need to improve on. Right now, I just care about making sure I'm filing my return correctly and TT isn't giving me any warm fuzzies.
