You can still sign up, but it costs a lot more.

This package alone makes TT worth it.

Audit Defense is less than $50. Turbo Tax offers it at checkout and just prior to sending out your taxes to IRS.

Default About the time you think you figured it out..

I've used turbotax & audit defense for years. This year someone pointed out Pro Diem and it worked great. Easy and $1500 greater deduction than my figuring...... AMT added $600 at the finish line. Somehow I did not come out any better but there's peace of mind that it is accurate. I'll do the same next year.

I've calculated my taxes for several years two ways:
1. With all per diem and unreimbursed employee expenses.
2. Without No. 1.

I find that the AMT nullifies any/most of the tax advantage and if you have a high 2% AGI threshold you may barely cross it. Is it worth the effort and potential for an audit?

Just notified week before x-mas no problem with taxes, owe nothing.

If you use turbo tax, pay the extra for Audit Defense. There were excellent well worth the money

Bingo, the AMT is moving the goalposts every year and trying to take a few deductions triggers it.
Generating a long list of deductions is also more likely to win you the audit prize.
