Investors & landlords

I've never used TT on Windows, but always have on desktop for Mac and I think this is just the way the software is changing.  But you should still be able to add any 1099-DIV or INT you want and work on it manually, it's just the screens got way more convoluted than they used to be.  I do drafts of my 1099's, and even major brokerage trades at the end of the year for 4th quarter tax planning, so it's there, just not as user-friendly as it was before.

 

I played around with TurboTax's online product and a lot of the screens we're seeing are reflective of its online design, but obviously others are still legacy (very legacy...).  It's becoming some sort of hybrid of desktop and online, and the online design seems to be what one would expect if they're doing their taxes on their cellphones.  Common sense is telling me that the target audience of tax apps has become people who do their taxes on their phones, not us relics who type in, or at least CHECK our forms, and save a copy of their tax returns on their hard drives (amongst other places).
