| For me, it was typically: 1. Log in to TurboTax and click through a few welcome screens (1 min) 2. Enter employer and AGI - TurboTax pulls in the rest of the W2 (1 min) 3. Enter bank credentials - TurboTax pulls in interest income (1 min) 4. Enter brokerage account credentials - TurboTax pulls in dividends and capital gains (1 min) 5. Enter charitable contributions manually (2 min) 6. Click "no" to some tax situations that don't apply (2 min) 7. Click populate state return from federal, then click "no" to a few more questions (2 min) 8. Enter credit card number and e-file info (1 min) Total: 11 minutes I don't see how it can take you more than 10 minutes to pay for TurboTax. You just enter the credit card number on the screen where it asks you for it. And you don't need donation receipts to file your return. If you're audited, you might have to find them (mine are all in my email), but audits are rare. |
