The Federal Return hardcoded the SSA forms for anyone over 65 and locked in arbitrary values that could not be edited/amended, corrected, or deleted when the taxpayer WAS NOT RECEIVING SSA funds. The form could not be deleted so the accuracy check would always flag that as an error that COULD NOT BE CORRECTED by the user. That lasted nearly 3-weeks before it was finally fixed. That is completely unacceptable for the prices you charge and the guarantees you make. The 2025 software should be thoroughly reviewed and corrective actions taken to ensure this does not happen again for 2026 and beyond. Furthermore, a full refund should be granted to any customer who purchased this software in good faith only to have this issue cause frustration, anxiety, and unnecessary stress.
I have used the tax software for so many years, and I never had any problem, but this tax year has been somewhat disappointing because the software is making changes in some parts of the information by itself. An example, I entered the correct amount in the withholding tax box, and when I ran an accuracy review, it made an error. This happens all the time, even though I corrected it over and over.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

They need to make a Linux version, I'm done with windows and apple spying on me. I now use Zorin and it's free.
