The basic downloadable Turbotax is designed for relatively simple tax situations for do-it-yourselfers. If you paid for a downloadable version, then you really didn't pay a lot of money when compared to hiring a CPA. If you want someone to do your taxes for you, and not pay a lot, I would suggest Turbotax Full Service. But even here, there are limits as to what Full Service can do, as it could take many, many hours to comb through and organize thousands of transactions. If you need to resolve prior year screw-ups, you need to consult a local CPA.
