You Enter Info Once. TurboTax Uses It Throughout Your Return.

With TurboTax Life Changes Profiling, there's no need to tell TurboTax anything twice. When you enter information during the Life Changes Profiling interview, TurboTax uses it to populate related fields throughout your return. And, just to be safe, we begin each new step by reminding you of what you've already told us - so you can make changes or proceed.

 

Sometimes, Your Changing Life Won't Actually Affect Your Taxes.

Not every change in your life will cause a change in your tax situation. That's why Life Changes Profiling not only tells you what new expenses to claim... but also what doesn't affect your taxes at all. So you'll know that, for example, even though you sold your primary residence and made a profit, you may not have to claim that profit.

When you know what affects your taxes and what doesn't, you can file your return with greater confidence that no stone is left unturned - and no deduction is missed.
