See this Amazon review: **UPDATE - IT'S EVEN WORSE**. Some customers have automatic extensions of time to file, so they won't get the "$25 cash back", because they will file after April 20. Many customers paid $30 extra, so Intuit will still make $5 extra for tricking customers. returning customers who have already upgraded to Premier or Home & Business, we are continuing to offer $25 cash back through April 20."Īpparently only customers who know about the rebate will get money back that may be a very small percentage. See this explanation by an Intuit VP on Amazon: Intuit is NOT making things completely right! Intuit is apparently just reducing the amount of abuse.
Turbotax deluxe with state 2015 costco software#
Intuit said in a release that "the information used to file fraudulent returns was obtained from other sources outside the tax preparation process." The company called pausing e-filings to states a "precautionary step." Utah, the first state to reach out to Intuit, issued a notice Thursday saying the state tax commission has discovered 28 fraud attempts that "originate from data compromised through a third-party commercial tax preparation software process," as well as 8,000 returns flagged as potentially fraudulent. After a preliminary examination with security experts, Intuit believes its systems weren't breached, but crooks may have used TurboTax software to file fraudulent returns after stealing identities, she said. The company says it is investigating criminal attempts to use stolen data to file fraudulent returns and claim refunds, after hearing concerns from a handful of states, Intuit spokeswoman Diane Carlini told MarketWatch. Mpicpp writes with this news from Marketwatch: Intuit, the parent company of TurboTax, has stopped e-filing all state tax returns due to increased suspicion of fraud.
