I had Turbo Tax scan my W-2 and it entered Box 14 K - Vision and Dental Deductions as Box 12 K - Golden Parachute, and Box 14 V - Pretax FEHB Incentive as Box 12 also. I fixed it manually. Almost cost me a lot.

Thank you for sharing that.

Scanned and uploaded documents should always be review for accuracy since glitches can sometimes occur during transmission.

Yep...some of us don't trust entries using uploads of pictures or PDFs of tax documents.

Too many reported errors that the AI "interpreter" makes....scrambling the data in some way or another.

I don't plan to use it for many years....but that's just my choice.
