I have used TurboTax for at least 5 years and always purchased the entry level package now it says because I have charitable deductions (which I do every year) I HAVE to upgrade to the $70 package.
Exact same thing is happening to me. I paid $45 last year for 2 returns and this time it’s $70 x 2 which is a huge increase- it’s making me do it because of charitable donations which does not make my return complicated. I don’t understand.
I have work income, children, RRSP contributions, employment expenses, and charitable donations. This is the same scenario I've had for the past 15 years and have paid between $35-$45 to file. Now it's $140 (2 tax returns filed together) plus tax. It's a huge increase and as a result i don't think I'll use turbo tax going forward.
Please contact our phone support team at 1-888-829-8608 as they will be better able to assist you. They can look at the returns with you to see what is going on.
I agree with this thread. I love turbo tax, but the price hike this year was CRAZY. I am not really seeing any explanation for the price hike. Historically, I didn't consider other options, but I am going to start now.
If you are doing more than one return you can purchase your TurboTax software from a retailer which because they purchased in bulk is cheaper to purchase from them.
