TurboTax Raises Millions For The Military

TurboTax Raises Millions For The Military

This year Intuit, the parent company of TurboTax, raised two million dollars through its Mission 2 Match fundraiser. With this program, TurboTax offered people the opportunity to pledge money for Operation Homefront, an organization that provides emergency financial help and other support to military families.

Majority Of Americans Against Cheating On Taxes

Majority Of Americans Against Cheating On 2013 Taxes

Each year as tax time rolls around we are forced to take a hard look at our financial records and situations.  Some of us are happy at this time of year as we know we will be receiving a refund from the Internal Revenue Service.  Others are not as happy as they know they will owe the IRS money.  With the IRS only auditing a mere one percent of all individual tax returns each year, it can be tempting to cheat on your taxes in an effort to not owe as much money to the federal government or to receive more money back.

If your own ethics and morals do not stop you from cheating on your tax return, perhaps a little peer pressure will.  A recent random telephone poll conducted by the IRS Oversight board shows that 87 percent of … Read the rest

District Court Rules That The TurboTax 2013 Ads Can Continue To Run

TurboTax Amazon

The recent TurboTax 2013 ads/television commercials focused on the accounting experience of the TurboTax 2013 staff while also pointing out the lack of experience of tax preparers from other major tax preparation companies. These ads sought to undermine the credibility of tax professionals from other companies by claiming that these professionals worked in plumbing and retail jobs outside of tax season. An outraged H&R Block went to court over the issue. They made several valid points about the ads, but ultimately, the district court ruled in favor of allowing the TurboTax 2013 ads to continue to air.

The United States District Court for the Western District of Missouri ruled on the advertising case, and the court decided that the adverts were legal. H&R Block was not mentioned in any of the Intuit TurboTax 2013 ads but they are … Read the rest
