Product Description
The Ideal Tax Preparation Software for Canadians with Investments & Rental Property Income.
Just because your tax needs are a little complex doesn't mean that doing your taxes should be. TurboTax Premier includes everything in Standard, plus powerful tools to help you easily claim investments & rental property income.
- NEW! Guides you through your return - just like a GPS - helping you make the most of your investments and rental property income
- NEW! Includes 12 returns
- Find RRSP-related deductions & plan for the retirement you want
Features:
TurboTax Accurately Guides You Step-By-Step To Your Maximum Refund. Guaranteed.
Just like a GPS in your car, TurboTax literally maps out your return as you make your way to your maximum refund with these handy and helpful features:
- Mapping icons: Know exactly what stage of your return you're in, and how far you need to go to finish
- Set flags anywhere: Easily mark sections you need to revisit, so you can find them again later - without getting lost
- Accuracy check: Double-checks your return for errors, helps you correct them and ensures every tax-saving opportunity has been found
What does this mean? It means that you can have confidence knowing your return is accurate. It means that you'll know exactly when one section is complete and you're ready to start another. It means that you'll know exactly where you are in your return, and how far is left to go. And it means that you're in control over how and when you prepare your return.
You're Investing Now to Secure Your Financial Future.
We Get It. And We Can Help.
TurboTax Premier includes tools designed to help maximize the tax benefits of your RRSPs, mutual funds and other investments:
- Capital Gains Analyzer: Calculates capital gains and losses for you and optimizes claiming them on your return
- RRSP Optimizer: See how different RRSP contribution amounts affect your refund or tax owing
- Investment Tracker: Tracks sales of stock and mutual funds and provides tax tips to help optimize the tax benefits of your investments
The result? You can confidently complete even the most complex personal tax return - and benefit today as well as at retirement.
Rental Property Guidance: Get The Profit, Minus The Hassle.
Do you own a rental property? Or rent out a room in your home? Have you ever made repairs to your rental property? Rental properties can, and should be, a great investment opportunity for your day-to-day life & your future plans. Make the most out of your rental income by claiming every possible expense with TurboTax Premier.
TurboTax Premier provides extra guidance for rental property income, helping you determine eligible expenses and providing tips for refinancing.
With the TurboTax Deduction Toolbox, We Find the Deductions.
...You Get Back Every Penny You Deserve.
We don't need to tell you that more deductions mean a bigger tax return. But maybe we do need to tell you about some of the deductions/credits you're entitled to... after all, you may qualify for any of 400 available to Canadians.
That's exactly what the TurboTax Deduction Toolbox does. With tools like the A-Z Deduction list, it does the hard work for you - and ensures that you don't overlook any items to claim, from medical expenses to tuition to charitable donations.
TurboTax Helps Optimize Your RRSP Contributions.
See how different RRSP contribution amounts affect your refund or tax owing with TurboTax's RRSP Optimizer tool. It helps you determine the optimum RRSP contribution amount for you and your spouse.
Then, you can contribute to your RRSP accordingly...and make the most out of your money.
TurboTax Handles Changes in Your Life.
Your life has probably changed over the course of 2010. Maybe you graduated university and got a job. Maybe you got married or started an RRSP. Much of what changes in your life can impact where you stand as a Canadian taxpayer... so TurboTax Premier tax preparation software helps you make sense of it all by asking "real life" questions that translate to fields in your tax forms.
TurboTax Personal Tax Profile asks you simple questions about your life. As you answer, TurboTax determines what tax slips and receipts you have to enter, and automatically applies the credits and deductions you qualify for.
Carry Forward Last Year's Tax Data. (Including UFile® or H&R Block® Desktop Software.)
Save time entering data by automatically updating your current year's return with personal information & carry over amounts from last year's QuickTax return. Even better, you cut down on human error when you automatically update, so accuracy is ensured. You can import from:
- QuickTax desktop software for the 2009 tax year
- UFile® desktop tax preparation software for the 2009 tax year
- H&R Block® desktop tax prep software for the 2009 tax year
That means that, even if you used a different software program (or QuickTax) last year, you can still use TurboTax and reap the benefits without re-entering data.
Split Your Pension Income Without Splitting Hairs.
Reduce Your Taxes by Splitting Pension Income with Your Partner.
Whether you have corporate pension plan income or income from a Canada Pension Plan, reap the tax benefits by splitting your pension income with your partner. It's easy - in TurboTax Premier.
The TurboTax Pension Income Splitting Optimizer advises you on how to best distribute your pension income (up to one half), so that you and your spouse/partner pay less in taxes. In fact, the Pension Income Splitting Optimizer will automatically propose the best distribution of your pension income. All you need to do is click a button to confirm the split. How's that for easy?
TurboTax Reviews Your Return Before You File.
All you should be concerned with is entering your information. Let us take care of double-checking your return and making sure everything is in order. TurboTax reviews your return before you file by:
- Reviewing your return for errors before you file
- Looking for missed deductions that you may qualify for
- Pointing out money-saving opportunities you should take advantage of
Helping you get the biggest refund you deserve
File Online - The Paper-Free Way.
And Get Your Refund in as Little as 8 Days.
When you've completed your complex tax return with TurboTax Premier, save yourself a stamp and save a tree... by choosing to file with NETFILE instead of printing out your forms and mailing them in to the CRA. Many people who file with NETFILE get their refunds in just 8 business days.
To NETFILE, you'll just need an Internet connection and the online filing code the CRA provided on your 2010 T1 personal income tax return package (along with your 2009 Notice of Assessment).
Audit Defence: Get a Professional on Your Side.
Even 100% accurate tax returns4 may get audited by the CRA. But with Audit Defence on your side, you can rest easy. That's because, in the event that the CRA audits you, Audit Defence connects you with an experienced tax professional who will:
- Deal directly with the CRA on your behalf
- Help to minimize CRA penalties, if they occur
How can you get Audit Defence on your side?
Just add it to your TurboTax product from within your copy of TurboTax Premier.
