Choosing payment option
on April 15, 2018
Posted by: dustoff
The program would not let me choose a way to pay taxes due. Three options given were pay electronically, pay with credit /debit card or mail in check. I tried all 3 options and I kept getting a window saying to select an option to pay. Based on this, I cannot recommend this software to anyone.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Software problems

Program constantly filled in fields wrong between Federal and State forms, then refused to allow me to e-file my state taxes because of the mistakes it made when it deleted all my information from my federal filing as I was filling in my state info
Cons: Hard to import
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Missing details regarding QCD
on October 15, 2018
Posted by: WaltPeck
from Cleveland, Ohio
The reason for this late review is that we just received a Notice from the IRS concerning the QCD that we made in 2016. Apparently the electronic filing did not have sufficient information regarding the details of the QCD. Because I also filed our 2017 return with a QCD we will probably get a penalty notice sometime next year.
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to prepare
I would recommend this to a friend!

Works for me

I've used this for the last 5 yrs. Got tired of TurboTax's high charges. I could probably do this for free online but I do like to get the basic edition.
I would recommend this to a friend!
