The problem is with the Illinois Stte return in the fact that it cannot be submited electronically because your system does not process the form IL 1299-C. This has beem a problem for acouple of years and I have been told it would be fixed. I filed my IL taxes by paper again this year and please recommend a software program which handles it electronically.
Pros: Easy to prepare
Cons: Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Here's opportunities for improvement:
1. Find a way to be able to enlarge the text in the application. It's so small it's unreadable and I can't see how older people can use this at all.
2. Make state filings free. States don't charge for this so why do you?
3. Look into why I was able to exclude my pension income last year on my Michigan state taxes in your software but state of Michigan came back and said the exclusion was not valid. Luckily they did not charge us they just changed our return amount.

Disappointed in connectivity to external Financial

Verified Purchase:Yes
Connectivity to popular financial sites like Merrill Lynch, Fidelity, ETrade, Shareworks was terrible. I complained about this last year and year before as well. I will say that getting the program to do stock trades and such is one of the main reasons I purchased this. May look at TurboTax next year Otherwise pretty straight forward.
Cons: Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Confusing and not designed for reporting more than
on March 5, 2026
Posted by: Gomf
from Marysville, WA
Your 2025 deluxe software is very poorly worded and designed in reporting IRA distributions with basis and values for multiple IRAs. It doesn't work. It doesn't allow for more than one IRA to be reported. Your "learn more" even says to consult a tax professional for Form 8606. What the point of buying your software then? I won't do it again.
Pros: Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The w2 amount in box one on several returns kept changing when I would close and reopen.It also did not carry over my depreciation from previous year. Almost missed that important deduction.
