There are great things about this site, the pricing is not one of them. As a student working a low income job they charge 183$ to file because I need to use special "deluxe" services to receive a credit for my tuition and loan from the 1098T/E. Makes it feel very pointless. My refund was 250$, but again after the 183 they charge.. Getting 60$ back? Oh well.
I selected the free filing the entire time until at the end when I tried to file and was given an immovable pay wall. Again disappointing.
made it easy and as painless as possible for doing taxes since they are design to be as painfully and as confusing as possible
Pros: My employment status changed this year

We love hearing that the process felt effortless for you. Taxes are complicated enough, so we’ve designed our interface to take the guesswork out of every step.
I have used Turbo Tax for the past several years and I found this year to seem way more complicated. There were too many abbreviations or names of items that I did not know what they were. This year took me much longer and more confusing.
