Not Bad March 31, 2009
Review of TurboTax - Tax Year 2008
Anonymous Reviewer (North Florida)
Pros: Easy, Quick, Simple
Cons: No way to do more than one under same log-in name.

About Me: I own a home
More About Me: I own rental property
"TurboTax is quite simple to use. The only issue I had is wanting to do the same return in different manners to see the best option - basically married filing jointly, then head of household and single. It appears to me you have to use multiple e-mails/log-ins to do this.

Otherwise it was easy to use."
