Thanks for the clarification on the "Do Not File marking.
I initially bought the Deluxe version so forms view was enabled. I usually do my taxes using the forms view to enter 1099 and W2 forms as they arrive in the mail or become available online. So not being able to access forms view would be a real pain.
If memory serves me, the forms view was available in the Deluxe and higher versions.
I'm happy to see that this forum is still operating. Although message traffic has dwindled, there is still lots of good information to be found here. Thanks for the informative reply.
I see it differently.
There seems to be little or no learning curve to the H & R Block software, I've switched in the past and then switched back to Turbo Tax with absolutely no difficulty, both work very much alike and either will import the other one's files without a problem.
No "loss of continuity" and nothing "falls through the cracks."
Let's hope Intuit loses enough customers to revert back to the old capabilities, if not, I see no reason to ever return to TT when an equally viable option is available for substantially less money.
Amazon and Costco are selling it for $69. That's close to what I paid for Deluxe in some store last year (when I got itchy fingers to do the same estimation process as you, RC).
(Intentionally posting in both threads that covered this topic since different users may have notifications for their threads.)
This was mentioned in the CBS "Moneywatch" morning segment:
Intuit is refunding me the entire price I paid for Premier at Costco. They offered me a free upgrade to any version I wanted but since Ihad already or dered Premier they just asked to see the invoice. I'm crossing my fingers that this actually happens. I wonder how much money this fiasco has cost them.
