Not optimal for dealing with e-file after the taxpayer has passed away. The program told be I had to upload a copy of the document naming me as executor, but never gave me a chance to do that before I would have clicked "submit". So I had to submit by paper mail.

I’ve used this software for years for both my taxes and a couple of other family members. I love the import feature. The guided features are great in case you’re not sure about one option versus another, helping you make the best choice for max refunds.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents
I would recommend this to a friend!

You need to dig deeper than you think. If you are dealing with a mandatory required distribution and a qualified charitable donation, this program has little guidance. When I called the 800 number I found that the agents knew less than I did. It was suggested that I go to a Block office and ask them, but be prepared to pay for their services. Shouldn't the program handle this common transaction? Next year I will try Turbo Tax.
Pros: Easy to import documents

I purchased my first copy about 5 years ago to replace my accountant who was getting way too expensive. The product is easy to install and to use and comes at a fair price. . It also provides a reliable platform to keep copies of old returns. This can come in handy when I have a question about a particular item.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast

Thank you for taking time to provide a rating! We're happy to see that you had a fantastic experience. We appreciate your business and look forward to seeing you again next tax season!
I have been using this program satisfactorily since 2017. This year the interview process had trouble handling my QCD's. It filled in a box with an error, which indicated I didn't take enough out of my IRA RMD. I had a long phone conversation with one of your agents, who agreed with me, but couldn't resolve the issue. I speculate the problem may have had something to do with Form 8606. Filled in properly and submitted.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents

Arithmetic error in program caused me to amend Federal return and resubmit. A late update corrected the mistake but I had already filed with IRS. The program did not properly calculate state and local income tax adjustment for the NIIT.
Cons: Time consuming, Doesn't maximize refund
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
