Ask the Experts | MetLife + TurboTax | Jan 15, '25

[Raph]

Join us right here on Wednesday, January 15th any time between 9:00am - 5:00pm Pacific Time for a special installment of our Ask the Experts event series.  This time, in partnership with MetLife Legal Plans, we'll be answering any of your tax questions, such as life changes, employee stocks, investments, maximizing deductions & credits, lowering taxable income, as well as how these situations may impact your tax situation.

RSVP by clicking the “Yes” button on the right, then come spend a minute, an hour, or the whole day in the TurboTax Community forums to get live answers from Tax and Financial Experts.  As a MetLife Legal Plans member, we’ve dedicated this day to help provide the confidence you need to file your taxes, any way you choose.  Ask unlimited questions — TurboTax is up for the challenge! Here are a few examples:

• How can I make sure I get all the tax breaks I qualify for?
• I’m confused about taxes and my investments - how do I file?
• I’m new to TurboTax, how do I get started?
• Is it better to Itemize deductions or take the Standard deduction?
• Is it better to file married filing jointly or separately?
• I started a side gig - how do I report that?  

How the day will work:

Our team of Experts will be in the TurboTax Community from 9:00am to 5:00pm Pacific Time on Wednesday, Jan 15th ready to tackle your tough questions and engage in conversation with you. Just click the teal “Ask a Question” button at the top of our special event forum to start a conversation! 

You can easily recognize our Experts in the forums. If they have the Expert icon by their names, they are TurboTax employees. If they have the Champ icon by their names, they are not employed by TurboTax, but they are very knowledgeable.

When you receive an answer, you’ll get a notification (check the bell icon in the upper right corner). You’ll also receive an email notification. Our goal is to answer every question that comes our way before the event is over!

We look forward to hearing from you!
