Turbo Tax Files transfer

[gate99]

I will be unable to use Turbo Tax next year. Do to them no supporting Windows 10.

I was wondering if anyone could tell me if any of the other H/R Block or TaxAct are able to use previous years Turbo Tax data? If you have experience with that how hard was it to transfer?

Main reason that I have used Turbo Tax for last 20 years was how easy it was to transfer previous years data

I assume you don't want to use the Turbo Tax Online version?   You can transfer the Desktop .tax2024 file into the Online version next year.

well having to create a separate account for each family member, which can get expense is a lot to ask Also since Turbo Tax has been hacked several times, don't have a lot of confidence in their security.

"Does not support Windows 10" is very different than "will not run on Windows 10".

Most likely, it will run and be fine.  But if there are any technical problems that would usually require contacting TurboTax Customer Support for non-tax technical support, TurboTax won't "support" it (they won't help with the non-tax technical support because it is running on Windows 10).

Personally, I would avoid the online version.

However, another thing to consider is if you really want to have your tax returns on a computer with Windows 10, regardless of what tax program that you use.  Windows 10 will no longer be getting security updates from Microsoft (except for certain circumstances, such as paying a fee).  Do you really want to have your highly personal information (such as tax returns) on a computer that doesn't get security updates anymore?
