Back to the original post. I recently experienced an error in Tubo Tax that lends credence to having a person do your taxes if you’re not familiar with taxation.
I’m sure Tubo Tax would say the issue is due to my data entry but I don’t think so.
The issue – I work for a company in a different state than where I reside. My company pays my resident county tax. However, Tubro Tax is convinced that I am paying the local tax to the state where my company is located. My W-2 was imported (not keyed by me) with the correct locality code. I tried several things to convince Turbo Tax that I am paying my county tax. If not caught this error would have cost me about $800. Luckily I didn’t blindly rely on Tubo Tax to do the correct thing.
