Software has bugs.
on February 9, 2026
Posted by: Garylf
I'm planning on using another software next year because Tax Cut does not properly compute the estimated tax penalty. Specifically, my 4th quarter estimate was paid on 2/4/26. Tax Cut computes the number of days the payment was late as 90 rather than the actual 20. My only recourse is to override the 90 with 20 and file a paper return or let the IRS compute the penalty. I believe I've had the same issue in prior years and it's still not fixed.
Cons: Doesn't maximize refund
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Don't Plan on Printing
on February 6, 2026
Posted by: Non Printer
Program works well. But forget about printing. All I wanted was a printout of 1040-SR and I would get either 15 pages or a bunch of gobblygook. Spent over an hour trying to get it out but to no avail.

Easy to supply the numbers needed.
on February 2, 2026
Posted by: Jedihopfe
from Seattle, WA
When I got this via download back in December, I had not realized one of the pieces that would be missing. Took me a while to figure out where to get the PI PIN which the IRS can supply. The code they want is 6 digits and what is in the form when submitting the tax return is 5 which contradicts what in based in the form itself. I thought it would be sent to me but it was not which is what made it difficult. Will need to be reminded of it next year.
Pros: Easy to import documents
Cons: Time consuming
