Not entirely true. I have received money back on taxes that I filed with an error that resulted in my overpayment. So in a simple case, yes they will return money they owe you. But I would not expect them to file an optimized return on your behalf and you probably already know if you should be doing this yourself.

- sokoloff 10y agoTurboTax claims no knowledge of the tax law is needed. Knowledge of your personal circumstances is required and TurboTax's interview process guides you through extracting that information. Charitable donations (to take a straight "optimized return" angle). How much did you give? Did you receive anything of value in return? Intuit (TurboTax) doesn't know that info. H&R Block doesn't. The IRS doesn't. CreditKarma doesn't. You do.
