Overall the program works well. Except for one annual irritation. Entering my oil & gas royalty 1099 information is a complete nightmare every year. For the life of me, I cannot understand how such a simple revenue item manages to take as much time entering correctly as it does. It is incredibly confusing and winds up doubling the time required to complete my taxes. I am considering switching to another program because of it.
the program isn't clear enough when declaring rents from royalties. when declaring both on different properties
Cons: Time consuming
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very cumbersome to switch between interview and forms. Difficult to transmit. Took at least 20 minutes to get through hitting retry 100's of times. Selected pay tax due by automatic withdrawal, yet that is not indicated anywhere on the return and the program generated a payment voucher. So I'm unsure if the automatic withdrawal will actually happen.
easy to install and run. Interview process is clear and seems complete. Recent version has added a lot of explanations and guidelines to help make answering more accurate.
The State return was rejected and the software is not making it easy to correct and resend.
Pros: Fast
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Nice program - Some issues printing State return
on March 20, 2020

I have been using this program for many years and still there is the issue that when I print my state return the cover page prints on side 1 of the page and the first page of the return prints on side 2. Cover page should print on page 1 side 1 and page 1 side 2 should be blank or have any continuation of Pg 1 side 1 on it. Not part of the tax form.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!

The price was right. I was able to finish very quickly. The only problem that I had was the income flow for interest and investment income had me manually fill in the 1099s. I could not find a way to download UNTIL I got to the capital gains section. Then I was able to download the interest, dividend, and sales information easily. Then I had to go back and delete what I had manually entered or else it would have been counted twice.
