I’ve been using TT since it came on diskettes - about 30 years!
The last few years I’ve noticed steady quality erosion.
First they couldn’t get the sale of home stuff working properly, and you had to do a work around.
Last year there were a lot of delayed forms, which made early filing hard.
This year I wanted to do year end planning, maybe take a distribution from the IRA, or sell some stock. But nothing was working before year-end and the 2024 stuff was useless because of the BBB tax changes.
There are long threads in the TT community about this. There is a theory that TT is driving people to their on-line products by making the desktop versions less useable.
I had to estimate and missed some opportunities as a result, in effect paying more tax than necessary. My taxes are filed and I’m done, but I may be done with TT as well. I’ll be shopping starting next Fall, but I’m strict about not sending tax info to the cloud so I don’t know what I’ll be able to do. Maybe go back to the good old days (paper forms, hand filled in!).
