TurboTax for iPad


This is the second year that Intuit has produced an iPad-optimized version of TurboTax. While you can still access TurboTax Online through your iPad browser, there's no reason not to go with the versions that were built specifically for Apple's tablet computer?unless you want to be able to access the return on another computing device, a desktop, or laptop. You can only work on your return on your iPad if you intend to complete it there. H&R Block lets you switch back and forth.

The other deficits I noted in the 2011 version are now absent. You can "bookmark" pages you want to revisit with a "Flag," and it's much more convenient to correct problems or omissions in the Error Check section.

TurboTax for iPad was very good last year, considering that it was Intuit's first tablet app effort. This year, it's better.

Much the Same
TurboTax Deluxe for the iPad, which I reviewed this year, has changed little internally. It still supports the most common tax situations as well as some obscure ones through forms and schedules like Schedule A, B, C, D, 1040-ES, 1098, 1099s, etc. If you live in a state that charges income tax, your relevant data can move automatically into your state's version.

Intuit pioneered a more user-friendly process for getting data onto IRS forms and schedules nearly 20 years ago, and all tax software and websites work the same way now. They recreate the experience of visiting a tax preparer's office by asking a lengthy series of questions in a wizard-like framework, performing the calculations required and entering your answers in the correct fields on actual tax returns. You don't see the forms until your return is completed; all you see are windows containing questions and ways for you to answer (blank fields, lists, Yes or No boxes, etc.).

When you've gone through all of the topics that you think apply to you, TurboTax analyzes your information, looking for deductions you might have missed and identifying errors and omissions. This year, it's much easier to fix mistakes, since the app provides a way for you to correct them right on the screen where they're identified. No going back into earlier screens and finding your way back out. H&R Block's approach is not as simple.

Commendable Support
All of the major tax preparation sites that compete for Editors' Choice do a commendable job of providing help for users (H&R Block was the weakest in my review of its online solution). TurboTax is consistently the best, and Intuit has carried that success over to the iPad version.

Unless a particular question is clear, like What is your name?, there's usually some text explaining the question succinctly right on the page with it. You can click on hyperlinked words and phrases?or "Learn More"?on the interview screens, and a smaller window containing a more thorough explanation appears. There's a link here to Intuit's Live Community, where taxpayers and experts meet to ask and answer questions.

And if you click on the question mark in the upper right corner, the TurboTax Help Center opens. Here, you can search through voluminous help files to learn more about a topic. Paid users of TurboTax can also email, chat online or actually talk on the phone to one of Intuit's tax professionals?as often as needed. No one else offers this for the iPad.

Almost a Carbon Copy
TurboTax for the iPad looks and works much like the online application. It follows the same interview process through the same topics, so you don't have to worry that you'll be missing a form or schedule. Anything you can download online (like W-2 data) is available for import on the iPad version.

As far as the user interface goes, it's practically identical. The only things missing are the excerpts from Live Community at the bottom of the screen and the Tools icon (gives you access to the topic search, topic list and fee informational utilities in the online version). There's no help query box, but you can get to the Help Center (and Live Community) by clicking the question mark in the upper right corner.

Navigation works similarly, too. You can jump back and forth among the site's primary sections by clicking on the outline in the left vertical pane (topic search is now located here). But you'll primarily move through the app by clicking buttons at the bottom of the screen, like Back/Continue and Yes/No, just like online.

Close, but TurboTax for the iPad Prevails
Both TurboTax for the iPad and H&R Block for the iPad are thorough, competent, comprehensive tax preparation apps. They don't support absolutely every personal tax situation, and neither is a good choice if you know little about taxes, are apprehensive about using an unfamiliar application and/or your financial situation in 2012 was quite complicated. In those situations, a visit to a tax professional may be in order.

But if you had a reasonably uncomplicated year with no major changes and you like the idea of preparing and filing your taxes using your iPad, TurboTax for the iPad is your best option. It offers more kinds of help at no cost, and you won't face what you can face when you've completed your return using H&R Block for the iPad: an expert solution telling you that you've done something wrong, but which makes it difficult to fix.

There's no Editor's Choice for the category of mobile tax preparation apps this year?just the recommendation that you go with Intuit's iPad and smartphone applications.

Raymond Hsia clinches third spot on victory stand in 2013 USA ...

Raymond Hsia clinches third spot on victory stand in 2013 USA Badminton Junior International ?

The budding male shuttler Raymond Hsia made amends after the failure in semi-final round and secured third position in USA Badminton Junior International Trials on Tuesday, February 19, 2013.

He locked horns with Darren Yang and this Boy?s Singles Under-17 encounter remained kept both contenders busy for three gruelling sets.

Though, Raymond lost first set with a narrow margin but he came back from this horrendous start and secured the honour in ending two games.

Both shuttlers challenged each other in all areas of game and kept the audience intact while piling up final figures of 20-22, 21-12 and 21-11.

Darren, who was underrated earlier in this event, also played impeccable badminton and walked tall despite of losing this crucial match.

He raised his chances of success by ruling the court in first set but then his fluctuated performance proved the biggest hurdle in his way to victory.

The opening game started with couple of gruelling rallies as both youngsters put all they had to gain an early advantage. However, neither of them could establish a permanent lead and remained close until the half time.

After the mid-game break, Darren gathered some pace and left his challenger far behind on the points table. He registered a tight yet decisive margin of 22-20 and bagged this important match point.

However, it proved his last success in this international event as Raymond stormed back with a strong reply and levelled the match score.

This time he did not repeat previous mistakes and launched a brisk attack. His powered packed campaign confined the opposing shuttler in rear court.

At first, Raymond mounted pressure by registering a mountainous figure of 11 and then capitalised this psychological edge to pile up a winning margin of 21-12.

The decider was supposed to be a nerve-racking contest as both shuttlers were looking to pocket this final match point.

Initially, they stood toe-to-toe but then Raymond struck hard when it mattered and tipped the scale in his favour.

He maintained a significant difference all the way to game point situation and locked the honour with an overwhelming score of 21-11.

Bahrain says Iran's Revolutionary Guard behind "terror" cell

ABU DHABI (Reuters) - Bahrain has accused Iran's Revolutionary Guard of setting up a militant cell to assassinate public figures in the Gulf Arab kingdom and attack its airport and government buildings.

Bahraini authorities said on Sunday they had arrested eight Bahrainis in the group, with links to Iran, Iraq and Lebanon.

The kingdom, base for the U.S. Navy's Fifth Fleet, has been in political turmoil since protests erupted there in 2011, led by majority Shi'ite Muslims demanding an end to the Sunni monarchy's political domination and full powers for parliament.

Bahrain has accused Shi'ite Iran of fuelling the unrest, an accusation Tehran has consistently denied.

In a statement published by the official Bahrain News Agency late on Tuesday, Bahrain's head of public security said the cell was part of a group called the "Imam Army" which included Bahrainis at home and abroad and members of other nationalities.

"Investigation has also revealed that a member of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard codenamed 'Abu Naser' masterminded the whole terror operation," the agency quoted public security chief Major-General Tariq Hassan al-Hassan as saying.

Abu Nasser supplied the group with $80,000, Hassan said, and instructed it to gather information, recruit and obtain weapons storage in Bahrain.

"MISTAKEN PATH"

The cell's planned targets included the Ministry of Interior and Bahrain International Airport, he said. The group attended training camps run by the Revolutionary Guard inside Iran, as well as some operated by Iraq's Hezbollah in Baghdad and the Iraqi city of Kerbala, Hassan added.

Five of the detainees were arrested in Bahrain and three in Oman, General Hassan said, adding another four Bahrainis were being sought by the authorities.

He said authorities had collected evidence in the form of papers and electronic documents, flashcards, phones, computers, cash and images of bank transactions.

On Monday Ramin Mehmanparast, Iran's foreign ministry spokesman, dismissed Sunday's news of the arrests.

"Unfortunately Bahraini officials are following a mistaken path," Iran's ISNA news agency quoted him as saying.

He said Bahraini officials were "making accusations against various countries including Iran, and they imagine that in this way they can solve the problem they are encountering".

News of the arrests emerged after an upsurge in unrest on the island last week. A protester and a policeman were killed in clashes on February 14 as anti-government protesters marked the second anniversary of the uprising.

The violence has clouded the atmosphere around talks that began on February 10 between the mostly Shi'ite opposition and the Sunni-dominated government to find a way out of the impasse over Shi'ite demands for more democracy.

Another round of talks was due to be held on Wednesday afternoon.
