TurboTax Business Federal + efile 2009
I have been a TurboTax user for many years. Although the price for the Turbotax Business is much higher than H&R Block’s TaxCut Business, I tried both, TurboTax was easier to use and preferred. This year I think the quality of the Turbotax business 2009 is in questions, so many bugs.
I downloaded free The Turbotax Business 2009 from their website, and I was ready to file the return, so I decided to buy a Business State, CA LLC. I paid $49.99 and then Downloaded it .. After installed it on my PC, I reopen the Turbotax Business 2009, there was no State CA LLC on the menu even I just installed it.. Then I tried to download the State CA LLC again, but this time using the Turbotax Business 2009 “online” menu instead of downloading it directly from the turbotax website. It guided me to my turbotax account, but after I logon to the account, the software asked me to pay $49.99 again!!! I supposed to have 3years of unlimited downloads since I have already paid it.. I decided to give it a try, selected “continue”, after that, the software downloaded and installed the business state CA LLC while the turbotax Business Federal was open. After that, I restarted the Turbotax business 2009 program, the State CA LLC was still not installed. Worst of all, my credit card got charged twice!!! Unbelievable..
I called the Turbotax support again, they offered me a free FULL version of Turbotax-business 2009, I tried it again, the Business State LLC still cannot be installed. The customer service was very nice, however, the bug is still there. Since the STATE CA LLC cannot be linked to the Federal Business 2009, both of them are useless for me..
I am really disappointed now. I am questioning Intuit’s internal engineering verification process before release a product for sale. Turbotax shall test those installation issues before release the software for sale. I worked in engineering companies before, before release a product, the product always got tested very extensively. This kind of installation error shall be tested extensively before the software release.
I am still waiting for them to solve the bug, and my turbotax account is still showing double charges..
I am considering H&Q block’s taxcut now.. So far I have not found those kind of low level bugs in H&Q software..
I will update the Turbotax Business bug fixing later.
—————
I am updating the status for the case..
Finally Turbotax fixed the problem. After I update the software again, the state CA LLC showed up. Turbotax business 2009 linked to the State CA LLC..
I actually went into a Turbotax Inner circle forum to post the bug, I am happy with their fast response and fix..
I actually just brought the H&Q Block taxcut business and plan to work on the return. Anyway, wasted a little money…Turbotax’s response to the inner circle bug reporting is very fast.. I reported a math error on form 1116 in 2008, they also fixed it within few day..
Thanks for the fast response.
I am still waiting for them to refund the double charge.

This is the fourth year I have used TurboTax – Biz. It serves my LLC needs very well. I primarily use the ‘wizard’ for data entry flows and it is exceptionally easy to use. Filing the Federal and State Tax was ultra simple and both were accepted in less than 24 hours. I would highly recommend to any small business. For the Price – it certainly beats the cost of using a CPA by a huge multiple.

I am a long time Turbo Tax user since about 1990 and in general find it to be an excellent program for personal and business. The business edition is really useful if you use QuickBooks. My business is fairly uncomplicated and I finished up the Federal part in less than an hour. The Quickbooks import helped a lot although some adjustments/edits were needed. Before I started my state part, I decided to double check the minimum franchise fee and to my great surprise found that as of 2010(2009 tax year) the FT1120 C and S filing is no longer required for most Ohio businesses. Isn’t that hard to believe?? An actual tax reporting and paperwork reduction! I was just at the point of ordering the $50 state download too. I wonder what Intuit would have done for me -like a $50 refund-if I had downloaded it and found it was no longer needed??? Here is the link if you want to see if your company is exempted:

TurboTax Business is easy to use. It generates a professional looking income tax return. You do need to buy and download the California version of the TurboTax Business Tax Return. If your business is located in California you are required to file a return with California even if you had a loss for your business for the year. California charges all business for the priviledge of doing business in California.

I use Quick Books Online Plus and thought it would be the same as having a desktop version, I mean, being both Intuit products, Importing from QB Online Plus into TurboTax would be standard. Wrong!!!!! You can’t do it. I had to print the Profit&Loss and the Balance Sheet reports and input all data manually!!!!! TurboTax maybe good as a software per se but I won’t be using it next time. I can do my business tax return myself and won’t need to spend 100 bucks, which by the way was another mistake because now they are selling it for 86 bucks!!!! .TurboTax Business Federal + efile 2009
