I am normally very pleased with the software, but this year I could not file my son's tax return because of an error I was getting saying the worksheet needed to calculate business mileage needed an IRS update in order to efile despite the calculation being done correctly and showing on the return. That's absurd. I waited several weeks, called the help line which was no help and ended up preparing the return in Turbo Tax. They didn't have any worksheet error.
Pros: Maximizes refund

Easy to use our taxes are very simple but would like to a simpler explanation when going through the interviews to understand a little better what some of the questions in “IRS” language mean.
Pros: Easy to prepare
Cons: Time consuming
I would recommend this to a friend!
