The TurboTax Community is a place for people to engage in discussions and ask questions about taxes various financial topics. Intuit TurboTax employees participate in the Community as well, but it is our primary intent to let users interact with other users. We have a strong community of volunteers, TurboTax partners, and TurboTax employees that strive to help as many people as they can. However, due to the nature of a user-to-user community, TurboTax does not guarantee that questions will get an immediate response.

TurboTax employees monitor this forum to identify and remove inappropriate content. The Moderators will enforce the Rules of Participation and the TurboTax Terms of Use at their discretion. TurboTax may modify these Rules of Participation from time to time.
DO Use Common Sense
Visitors to the Community come from all walks of life, from tax experts and software programmers to people who are new to doing their taxes.
