I had a tax preparer do my taxes for the last 5 or so years and he charged me a fortune. I just slow entered all my info over a couple days and Turbo Tax made everything so easy to understand. This is such an excellent program, and I will be using it for years to come.
They try to upcharge you on everything. And you have to pay for the deluxe version just for the simplest things next year I'll be trying out another tax software. TurboTaxes gotten pretty bad.
This is my 3rd or 4th year in a row using Turbo Tax, it is easy to use and understand. Guides you through every step, brings over your info from last year making it faster to fill out. Only negative for me was changing the direct deposit bank info, just put check boxes next to the account, "correct" or "change" pick a word.
I've used this program with confidence for many years. It's methodical and easy to follow. There have been a couple items that have tripped me up but all have been resolved. It does get better every year.
