Customer Reviews of TurboTax State 45 Multistate 2002
Good Stuff --- BUT it may not be your best buy The good folks at TurboTax and Amazon.com have been much more careful this year.
I was not alone in buying this product, which includes 45 states' tax returns on one CD-ROM, under the *mistaken* impression that you could access more than one state. (Why else would a customer care that it is a multi-state disk rather than only his or her state?)
If you want to use the throughly excellent TurboTax programs to do your federal and state taxes, then you should buy TurboTax Deluxe, which includes one state for free in addition to the federal tax stuff. You will not need to buy this product.
If you plan to file in more than one state, then you would be required to purchase one copy of this product for EACH additional state. (Of course, once you own TurboTax Deluxe you can download additional states for the same price as ordering this and help the environment by consuming one less box and CD-ROM. Somehow that should be deductable. :o) ...)
As far as the state products go, the ones with which I have had experience (MO, IL, IA, and IN) are user friendly and massive timesavers. For those of us who work in two different states (at least MO and IL), TurboTax state products easily and quickly perform the cumbersome task of figuring out how much tax goes to which state. The calculation verges on calculus and, before TurboTax, I spent hours upon hours trying to figure it out without ever knowing if I had done it correctly.
Highly recommended for those who need this product and who understand what it is they are ordering.
Better than pencil and paper.
This is my third year using the State version of TurboTax and my fifth year with the Federal version. If you made a big gulp and installed the federal version inspite of the product activation scheme then I would get the state version also. If you bought the deluxe federal version the state version is free after rebate.
I have to give the state version three stars because it lacks a lot of the help features that come with the federal version of the program. For example, in Massachusetts you have to break down interest and dividends for inclusion into various tax brackets (it's worse than the federal form) but TurboTax gives very little help in figuring out what goes where. (May be other state versions are more helpful). Still, it is a lot better than the pencil and paper method. If you can take the product activation scheme then this is worth using.
beware - the rebate - they won't send the rebate to you
I sent in all of my documentation for the rebate so that this would be free after rebate (as advertised everywhere). They sent me a postcard saying that they needed my receipt. I don't know if they don't take the Amazon shipping receipts or if they just don't want to issue rebates. I think that's what they count on to give so much "free" software away - not issuing $$ back to purchasers. This was the first time I've purchased tax software and I won't buy this product again - ever.
