if your taxes aren’t too complicated and if youve ever prepared your taxes on your own before you can do it easily on turbotax deluxe 2023  it downloaded quickly and worked well  unfortunately there are a couple of issues with it that lose it stars  instead of coming with free federal and state filing as it did years ago theyve changed to free federal filing for up to five returns but one has to pay extra to file the state return  be aware of that and plan to pay 25 or so or print it all out and make a trip to the post office making turbotax deluxe 2023 less deluxe than it should beanother issue is for those who have to use a federal ip pin for the us government to accept the return electronically  that should be easy to find but its not  in addition the signature requires a five digit pin that the filer must supply but this is different than the sixdigit federal ip pin  this should be made clearer as data is being entered to avoid confusion  the intuitturbotax website could be clearer on this toofinally turbotax has required windows 10 or the mac operating system for the past couple of years shutting down those who still cling to windows 7  yes while microsoft doesnt support it anymore there are a lot of people who still use it  a windows 7 version would be helpfulin summary all of this means ill be using turbotax again next year since its probably the best most thorough tax prep software available to the average user but the issues result in turbotax 2023 deluxe only being rated at 34 stars
