The good folks at Intuit seem to forget their application of Newton’s third law - for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.  Historically there is a definite trend of when they fix one thing, they break something else. I transmitted a couple of returns today and couldn’t believe there were a number of updates to the software.  Why oh why is there a need to be making changes this many months after the “first round” of tax season has ended.  Is the software so screwed up that they are still putting duct tape on it this late in the year?  In case the folks at Intuit are still using a Mayan calendar, they need to be aware that there is less than a week for preparers to get their final returns out the door.  Twiddling with the program at this stage of the game has the potential to make preparers suicidal.  Stop doing that!
