TurboTax, from Intuit Inc. (Nasdaq: INTU), the leader in online tax preparation, processing nearly 40 million tax returns last year alone, is expanding into the assisted tax preparation category with the launch of TurboTax Live Full Service. Now with TurboTax Live, taxpayers can choose to connect to a dedicated tax expert, who will prepare and file their tax return for them - all from the comfort of home.
The TurboTax Live Full Service experience matches taxpayers with their own dedicated tax expert based on their unique tax situation, state of residence, and language preference - English or Spanish. The process is simple: match with a TurboTax Live tax expert, securely upload or import tax documents, connect via live video to review a detailed summary. The expert does all the rest.
“For over 20 years, TurboTax has been helping millions of Americans easily prepare their own taxes. Today, we are thrilled to bring a fully assisted tax preparation product to market with the launch of TurboTax Live Full Service,” said Greg Johnson, executive vice president and GM of Intuit’s Consumer Group. “Now, regardless of whether you want to do your taxes yourself or have them prepared in entirety for you by a tax expert - TurboTax will help you get every dollar you deserve.”
How TurboTax Live Full Service works:
- Expert Matching: Everyone’s tax situation is different. That’s why TurboTax Live matches people with a dedicated tax expert, based on their specific tax situation. Giving taxpayers confidence that they are getting every deduction and credit they deserve, and their taxes are done right.
- Document Upload: Taxpayers can securely upload or import their tax documents for their dedicated expert, so they can get started on the return. No mailing or drop-offs needed.
- Return Summary: When the tax return is finished, customers review everything with their tax expert on a video call, along with a detailed breakdown of every deduction and credit they are eligible for.
- Easy Filing: Once the customer is pleased with the outcome, they give the tax expert permission to sign and file their return.
In addition to the new full service experience, TurboTax Live also continues to offer taxpayers the option of getting expert help as they do their taxes. This provides a customizable experience based on the expert support users need and want. Whether they are looking for unlimited tax advice and answers, a line-by-line review of their tax return before they file or hand off their taxes to a dedicated expert, TurboTax Live experts are ready to help.
