Agreed - “clunky” is the most appropriate description for the experience in the 2025 version. My forms wouldn’t import, fields would delete data rather than saving when hitting the Continue button (which required me to go back and fix issues before filing). All in all, I just don’t know that I felt I received good value for money. To top it all off, I was forced to buy an upgrade product because I received unemployment income last year. I don’t have a complicated tax situation at all. But because I lost my job last year, TurboTax charges me more so I can compete an additional form for them to file? This is the behavior of a scam artist, not a trusted partner. Do better.

Their fees are insane and you can't get any support whatsoever, only incompetent idiots who call you. They miscalculated my grandsons federal refund and now I can't get ANY support with THEIR mistake whatsoever, they tell me to call the IRS, well it wasn't the IRS who screwed it up, it was TURBO TAX!  By "they" does that mean the program miscalculated, or did you use the LIVE TurboTax feature that has a tax expert assistance?      In any case, if you want to escalate your issue, you can contact a liaison in the office of the president of Intuit.   They say they will get back to you within 1 business day, although with filing deadline, this is a busy time, so it might be more than 1 day.    Here's the contact info:   https://www.intuit.com/company/contact/office-of-the-president/

Dans TurboImpôt bureau, est-ce que vous voyez bien cette page sous Revenus et dépenses >> Feuillet de renseignements     Cliquer sur Continuer et cliquer sur Entrer un nouveau T4 – Relevé 1 pour ....nom de votre conjoint.   Merci de choisir TurboImpôt.  

Yes.  Click here to file an extension.  Remember an extension is just for extra time to file, not extra time to pay.  If you are going to owe anything, you will still need to pay by April 15th.    You can pay directly via the IRS website which is the recommended way or you can pay by check.  Be sure to include your SSN on your check and the tax year. 

The latest from Intuit. "As you heard last week, some customers have experienced a CRA systems error which impacted their ability to file their taxes. These errors are affecting all CRA certified tax software across Canada." I filed online with Wealthsimple and had zero issues. Apparently not ALL software is affected by this issue. I'll be seeking a refund and moving to a different platform next year. There are Canadian alternatives available at the same or lower pricing. YANKEE GO HOME!!
