I have TT Premier. I want to start entering dividends. I clicked on Update on the dividends line but instead of getting a list of the institutions like in previous years I get a jumbled list of dividends, interest, and whatever else and TT wants to import each item. I want to enter my items manually like I have done in previous years. So, I click to update institution XXX and the import list comes up, I click Skip Import and a screen comes up with options to enter dividends or interest or whatever and I click dividends and finally get the dialog window to enter total dividends and qualified dividends. Once I enter those and continue to the next screen (special situations) and then finish my entry, I am returned to that aggravating screen to import more items. I hate this interface. Why did Intuit put such a piece of crap like this in Turbo Tax? Make it go away. I want to enter manually with as few screen clicks as possible. If Turbo Tax does not revert the interface to the one that they have used for many years then this will be the last year I use Turbo Tax.

I know, I don't like how to enter Interest, Dividends, Sales etc. Too many clicks and screens to click on and go through. There is no table on the screen (except in Forms) and you have to click though several screens to add more. And after I manually entered 3 interest it didn't ask if I wanted it to stop asking to import. Oh and Interest, Dividends and Sales are listed in the same list on the screen alphabetically. If I go to Interest I only want to see Interest!
So go to the bottom and click on +Add Investments
Then to Import enter the bank or financial institution in the search box
Then double click on the item below
OR to manually enter, don't enter the bank name and click Skip Import at the bottom
THEN....should be a screen with 5 boxes, Interest, Dividends, Stocks, Bonds, Mutual Funds, Cryptocurrency and Other.
