    Termonology not explained enough

    • Definitely covers everything.
    • "Help with" and "Explain this" seldom helped me

    "Like the federal 1040 Instructions it is sometimes very difficult to determine what is meant by the words used, i.e. what in my situation fits this? This should be explained in layman terms and could be qualified by indicating that the "legal" meaning rules and the explaination can only be used as a guide or assist. I'm not sure I will spend the money next year for Turbo Tax. I'm 90 yrs. old and have my son-in-law to help me through this."

    tax stuff

    • It is done
    • what a hassel

    "It is not easiest program, but I have not tried anyone else for a comparison. Last years program allowed an option to allow you to carry over your refund until next year. Also the on the state, it did not give the option to pay in quarterly. I owe less that $100 but I did pay each quarter thus my tax is almost netural."

    • copying last year's data
    • NJ worksheet required, no user community response

    "This year the NJ forms require the use of a worksheet for Pensions & Annuities. The 3-year rule no longer applies to me. My 1099R tells me the total amount of pension received and the amount of that which is taxable. However, the worksheet for the General Rule (Part D, lines 1 & 2) requires me to calculate the amount I have received and WILL receive in the future. TT didn't require that in the past. I could not proceed without answering that question, and I have no idea how much I WILL receive. The user community offered no help, and I don't think it's fair that I have to pay $29.95 for you to tell me how to bypass the worksheet. I know the answers for the NJ1040, just not the worksheet."
