I deal with it all in February - as soon as the forms come in. It's an hour or two to sort the various paperwork that's accumulated over the course of the year and enter it into TurboTax.
What's the big deal?
I spent over 2 hours alone 'correcting' what in the end were programming errors in Turbotax for filing my personal return. Was frustrating to say the least.
This is not just the mess that is the US tax code. This is just Turbotax not transferring data from one field properly (that they required me to input) to the right place on an IRS form. Would have been far easier for me to just directly correct the resulting IRS form, but TurboTax Deluxe on the Mac did not let me do that.
And that’s why I’ve used H&R Block Deluxe for the last five years. Kicked TurboTax to the curb when the Mac version started getting weird.
