And for cryptocurrency transactions, TurboTax supports up to 20,000 transactions, five times the last year’s number. You can import up to 10,000 stock transactions directly from financial institution import partners, and the software now performs an analysis on your investments’ cost basis based on your data imports. Investors get a holistic view of their portfolio with the new Investor Hub, which pulls together all investments and their related taxes. Meanwhile, investments and cryptocurrency gain big support this year with additional updates to the import process. It also adds a handy year-round expense monitor that can simplify the tax process when the time comes, a deductions checklist, and a streamlined Schedule C intake intended to better tailor the screen prompts for your tax situation. TurboTax Self-Employed adds photo import for 1099-K forms (but we saw only the opportunity to import using a digital file). And if you have a business with associated deductions, that’s covered in the Self-Employed product, which now looks for over 500 possible credits and deductions and uses machine learning and AI (according to TurboTax) to uncover deductions for your industry. But Schedules D (investments) and E (rentals and royalties) - including rental income, roboinvesting, and cryptocurrency transactions - require the Premier tier (although oddly, the Deluxe version allowed us to enter crypto transactions without prompting us to upgrade, as it did for stock investments). If you have a 1099-NEC form (the new independent contractor income form) or investments, you may be able to use Deluxe. If you have a 1099-K from selling personal items or as a hobby, you can use Deluxe, but not if you have self-employed income. If you’re using the Live Full Service tier, you can use TurboTax’s MyDocs cloud service, through which you can share relevant tax documents for review (you can also add your docs there to collect them in one secure place, even if not using a tax pro to do your taxes for you). TurboTax has long let you import data from financial institutions and from Intuit QuickBooks, but not its consumer-centric Mint (TurboTax desktop handles Quicken imports as well). Intuit TurboTax Deluxe 2022 review: Features All other TurboTax Live Assisted and Live Full Service options cost $64 to file a state return, up $15 from last year. TurboTax Live Assisted Basic, which includes live support, includes one state filing. That's pricier than H&R Block, which charges $37 per do-it-yourself state return. State tax filing costs $59 per state on all standard do-it-yourself TurboTax online products, also up $10 from last year (a free state return comes with TurboTax Free online). Intuit TurboTax Deluxe 2022 review: State filing Small businesses get a boost with the new TurboTax Live Full Service Business Tax, which handles LLCs, S-corps and partnerships. TurboTax’s software dynamically adjusts for its military product, as opposed to having a separate “product” (as TaxAct does for its military tax service). (Live services are not an option with the downloaded versions.)Īctive duty and reserve military users can file federal and state taxes for free, using a link via the website’s menu. The downloadable product lets you electronically file, or you can print out and mail your return. If you prefer to keep your tax data local instead of using an online service, Intuit continues to offer four varieties of download-to-own TurboTax, at the same prices as last year (Basic, $50 Deluxe, $80 Premier, $110 and Home & Business, $120). Also, you can see up front what Live Full Service costs before you start H&R Block’s interface still obscures the pricing for its full virtual tax prep option online. We like TurboTax’s price transparency for its Live Full Service product. If you qualify for the Basic Live Assisted Service, you can get this service free if you file before March 31. TurboTax Live Full Service’s prices are a more significant step up from Live Assisted (new name, same as last year’s “Live” tier), but still a fairly reasonable expense when you consider you’re getting a fully virtual service tax pro handling your taxes - and they now handle your taxes live on the call with you.
